Stipula Casa Mila

Since its inception, Stipula has always embraced a commitment to creating the best of the best. Its name stands for the straw that ancient Romans publicly broke as a sign of acceptance of an obligation. Living, designing and manufacturing in Florence, the birthplace of the Renaissance, reinforces these values. Recognizing the artisans who lived this philosophy has been a priority for Stipula. Modernistic architect Antonio Gaudi is honored here with a special, limited edition, Casa Mila collection.

Those of us who have visited Barcelona are familiar with the stunning works of Gaudi. His creations have a dream-like power, leaving visitors awestruck. Casa Mila displays some of his most expressive and astounding work. Standing inside the open-air atrium you are dwarfed by its wavy design and mesmerized by the starry sky. Stipula has tastefully captured all these nuances in its Casa Mila fountain pen and ballpoint.

The resin body resembles a beach of fine sand to replicate the wavy façade. The sterling silver clip and center ring incorporate Casa Mila's unforgettable roof vents and balconies. All trim is finished in faded matt gold to beautifully accent the 6mm titanium flex nib, fondly referred to as a T-flex. This unique, one-sized nib reacts perfectly to varying amounts of pressure. A heavy hand leads to broad lines, a lighter touch to finer lines. Refill your Casa Mila fountain pen with international-size ink cartridges or the included converter and bottled ink. Equally representative of Gaudi's design is the Casa Mila ballpoint pen. This twist-top ballpoint utilizes a "Parker" style refill which is available in ballpoint, liquid or gel ink. Stipula will only produce 274 pieces of each the fountain pen and ballpoint, worldwide, so stop dreaming and place your order quickly.
