Description
After numerous requests from fountain pen lovers, Leonardo proudly introduces the Furore Grande. This is the larger version of the popular Furore model, inspired on the famous fiord located on the Amalfi Coast, and named after the small village of Furore, part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997.
The fountain pen has a 14kt gold or stainless steel nib in different sizes (Extra Fine, Fine, Medium, Broad, 1.1 and 1.3 Stub) and the feed is made of ebonite. There is also an ‘Elastic’ nib to choose from, adding extra flexibility to your writing experience.
The Furore Grande uses a piston filling mechanism with a capacity of 1.5 ml.
And the story goes on… A family tradition. Leonardo Officina Italiana is a forge, a laboratory where experience and craftsmanship are mixed giving life to “pleasure”, the pleasure of writing. Over 45 years of experience in the field of writing instruments, handed down from father to son, from generation to generation. Today Leonardo Officina Italiana works on emotional and vintage projects, taking up the old loading systems, the materials and the working techniques that once characterized the craft of the craftsman. The Leonardo pens have a soul, a human warmth that only passion can give. The fountain pen carved into the material is certainly this detail that differentiates us on the world market. Each Leonardo collection is hand made in Italy.

The purple acrylic finish of this pen is mesmerising, simply attractive, the pen is comfortable to hold either posted or unposted. The EF steel nib is smooth on paper with some nice feedback, but does not have the feel of scratching the paper. Whenever I am taking a break from using this pen, I will always appreciate its attractive finish, indeed a work of art!

This pen is not only great value but writes and feels fantastic. While
The purple is very visually striking and stands out from the crowd and makes a very good every day pen due to its easy writing style

This pen landed in my hands and rose to the top of my collection within minutes of putting ink in it the first time. Even above pens which were more then triple the price. I bought this pen on a recommendation from a friend who knows I like Italian pens, and I am thrilled she did. It’s a solid comfortable writer, looks great, smooth with just a hint of feedback, and goes everywhere with me. My ONLY complaint is I’d prefer a tiny bit more weight, but I like it so much as-is I’ll likely buy more in different colors and/or nibs. I’m looking forward to buying and trying the gold nib vs some of my other gold nib pens.

Absolutely gorgeous pen the nib is very nice to write with but also very stiff and will take time to be more flowing in style that aside quality of this pen is outstanding
