Scribo La Tradizionale Limited Edition Oak Wood & Silver Fountain Pen

SCRIBO LA TRADIZIONALE

Limited Edition – 104 pieces worldwide

With LA TRADIZIONALE, SCRIBO pays tribute to one of the greatest symbols of Emilian craftsmanship – Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena . This exceptional edition was created in collaboration with three-Michelin-starred chef Massimo Bottura , head of Osteria Francescana in Modena, and unites two expressions of the same idea: time, dedication, and the art of refinement.

The fountain pen is entirely handcrafted from aged oak – the same wood in which traditional balsamic vinegar matures for years. The grain and color variations make each pen unique. The twelve facets of the barrel reflect the care and precision that also characterize the vinegar's maturation process.

Fine details in 925 sterling silver complete the design: The clip features an enameled "vinegar drop" appliqué, the cap rings are engraved with "La Tradizionale ," while Massimo Bottura 's signature is engraved on the handle. The cap bears the symbol of a feather – representing the creative origin of every thought before it becomes action.

With this edition, SCRIBO honors the philosophy of craftsmanship, which prioritizes patience and precision over speed. The essence of writing – like that of Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale – is not created in the moment, but over time.

The LA TRADIZIONALE is produced in 104 numbered editions . The first four are dedicated to Massimo Bottura – as a reference to his three Michelin stars and the Green Star for sustainable cuisine.

Each edition comes in a handcrafted wooden collector's box . It contains:

• a 90 ml bottle of inky black ink , inspired by the color of “black gold”,

• a 100 ml bottle of Gold Capsule “Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena” ,

• as well as a leather case.

With every purchase, SCRIBO donates 5% of the net proceeds to Food for Soul , the non-profit organization founded by Massimo Bottura, which fights against food waste worldwide and promotes social inclusion.
