Scribo La Tradizionale LE Fountain pen

The latest creation is the La Tradizionale Limited Edition Fountain pen and is dedicated to the “Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale” of Modena, an icon of our territory, an expression of excellence of the culinary art of which Massimo Bottura, with his Osteria Francescana, is the best known and most representative exponent.

Massimo Bottura, the Chef patron of the three-star Michelin restaurant Osteria Francescana, has over the years brought the Emilian cuisine to its highest level of excellence, paying homage to it and revolutionizing it at the same time. Massimo signs this collection with us dedicating a few words to the bond that, for him, ties cooking and writing, looking at the latter as a vehicle to initiate the creative process and to make it communicable and real.

The Scribo La Tradizionale Limited Edition Fountain pen is an authentic Made in Italy jewel: it is entirely made by hand from oak wood, which has been skilfully crafted from the barrels where the “Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale” of Modena aged for years. The different wood grains and colours on the 12 facets testify the uniqueness of every single piece, enriched by delicate and finely engraved Silver 925‰ details.

Only 104 limited and numbered pieces are made of the Scribo La Tradizionale. The first four numerations represent our homage to Chef Massimo Bottura. In addition to the three “Michelin Stars” that Osteria Francescana boasts since 2012, there is a fourth star since 2020, the Michelin Green Star, an award given to chefs who promote a cuisine based on sustainability and low environmental impact.

The Scribo La Tradizionale Limited Edition is available with all Scribo nibs and is stored in a wooden case containing both a 90 ml bottle of ink made of the same color of the Aceto Balsamico and a precious 100 ml bottle of Gold Capsule extra-old “Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale” of Modena.

The nib is available in 18 kt gold or a 14 kt flex nib. The pen fills with a piston filling mechanism.

Scribo is a young Italian brand with a long history behind it. The Scribo project started on the same day the glorious history of Omas, a historic Bolognese company that has become a cult in the world of fountain pens’ collectors, ended. With Scribo, acronym for Scrittura Bolognese, the brand ideally take the baton so that handwriting, as an ancient art retrieval story, can be pursued.
