FOUNTAIN PEN
PEN
BOX / PEN DISPLAY / PICTURE FRAME
The
Maasai writing instruments are offered in an innovative case, which due to
its smart design offers the possibility of being used in three different
functions.
First
of all it is an elegant pen case handmade from special African wood (wenge).
It can be used also as a pen display or as a very particular picture frame,
which due to its design and distinctiveness adds beauty to any photo and
without doubt compliments any desk or tabletop.
INDIGENOUS PEOPLE
Indigenous:
native of the place…. beyond the year two thousand, the years of humanity
are many. Man, today like yesterday? Man has not changed, he has progressed,
man has never been "old", man has immediately uncovered itself,
different from all that encircles him, he walks fast in time changing soul,
spirit, religion, habits, customs, but within the bottom of the spirit
remains the same man that has completed the first step towards today without
ever stopping himself ..a journey, perhaps infinite... And the indigenous?
numerous and fascinating are the indigenous peoples, "self sufficient
and primordial, people like us walk in time but remain always within the
borders of their world, walking at different steps with one extraordinary
companionship, nature. What about us? Changed indigenous and marathon crowds
of time, we love that being human is being different but equal, what have
lost during our race through time. This is perhaps the fascination of
INDIGENOUS PEOPLE.

Delta
turns passion to form Passion, that vital ingredient that unites
craftsmanship with design research, is behind Delta Artigiani della
Scrittura's ongoing exploration of new cultural horizons. Indigenous
peoples, native populations, are the ancient peoples who reflect the spirit
of the land and the nation. Delta is paying tribute to the indigenous
peoples of the world as the earliest and authentic representatives of their
lands in a modern pen that sets out to reflect the millennia-old force of
indigenous populations.
Delta
has stepped into the role of the intrepid explorer of yesteryear to find new
and forgotten civilizations. Nowadays, the fountain pen can be seen as an
artifact brought back to the homeland to express to others the excitement of
rediscovering the past - the colors, forms, and customs that have been lost
in time. Today as in the past, the pen - the instrument we use to write and
relate experiences - is the instrument that million and millions of people
have used to communicate themselves to the world.
