Leonardo Momento Zero Grande Eclipsis Sun fountain pen
The Leonardo Officina Italiana Momento Zero Grande Eclipsis – the Sun is a fountain pen for those who see writing as a ritual. Part of the Eclipsis collection, it takes its name from the Latin word for eclipse and invites you to follow the rhythm of the Earth, the Sun and the Moon. It combines a transparent body, rose gold trim and an in-house piston mechanism.
Eclipsis: the Sun and the Moon
An eclipse happens when one celestial body comes between the Sun and another, partly or totally hiding its light. Leonardo turned this phenomenon into a pair of pens in the Momento Zero Grande family: the Sun and the Moon. This listing is for the Sun.
The Sun: transparent base, midnight blue and bronze
The Sun has a transparent base with midnight blue and pearlescent bronze curves that swirl through the barrel and cap. Because the body is transparent, you can see the piston mechanism, the nib and the feed. Once the pen is filled, the ink inside becomes part of the design and adds another dimension to the pen.
Rose gold trim
The clip and the cap and barrel rings are finished in rose gold, which gives a warm contrast to the cool tones of the body.
Steel or gold nib: choose your size
Pick the nib that suits your writing:
- #6 steel nib: EF, F, M, B, Stub 1.1, Stub 1.5, Elastic F and Elastic EF.
- #6 gold nib: EEF, EF, F, M, B, Stub 1.1, Elastic F and Elastic EF.
- #8 gold nib: EEF, EF, F, M, B, BB and Stub 1.1.
Piston mechanism made in Leonardo's workshops
The piston mechanism is produced in Leonardo's own workshops. With the dedicated disassembly tool you can service its parts yourself, and you can also replace the internal rubber parts, which makes the pen easy to maintain over time.
A gift for eclipse watchers
Every package comes with "safe eclipse" glasses for observing solar eclipses safely.
