Leonardo Dodici No.6 Fountain Pen - Vulcanica CT EF
The Leonardo Dodici No.6 Fountain Pen – Vulcanica CT is a masterful expression of Italian craftsmanship, combining elegant design, high functionality, and a striking volcanic-inspired aesthetic. Crafted in Italy by Leonardo Officina Italiana, this pen belongs to the renowned Dodici collection, known for its distinctive twelve-faceted body that balances ergonomic comfort with refined style.
Design & Aesthetics
The Dodici No.6 features a sleek twelve-sided barrel and cap, providing a secure grip and preventing rolling when placed on a desk. Its Vulcanica colorway evokes the raw energy of volcanic stone, rendered in a deep, glossy black with subtle, organic variations that hint at molten textures. The CT (Chrome Trim) accentuates the pen’s modern elegance, contrasting beautifully with the rich dark resin body.
Nib & Writing Experience
At the heart of the Dodici No.6 is its 14K gold No.6 nib, available in a range of sizes including Extra Fine (EF), Fine (F), Medium (M), Broad (B), Stub 1.1 mm, and flex options. Paired with a traditional ebonite feed, the nib delivers a smooth, responsive, and expressive writing experience, suitable for both everyday use and special correspondence.
Filling System & Capacity
This pen is equipped with an integrated piston-filling mechanism, allowing for a generous ink capacity of approximately 1.5 ml. A transparent ink window enables easy monitoring of ink levels, combining practicality with elegance. The piston system can also be disassembled for maintenance, ensuring long-term performance and reliability.
Dimensions & Ergonomics
With a closed length of 155 mm, a body length of approximately 135 mm, and a weight of around 32 grams, the Dodici No.6 is balanced for comfortable writing over extended sessions. Its 12-faceted barrel provides a natural grip while maintaining a sophisticated profile.
Durability & Warranty
The pen is built to last, with high-quality resin construction and robust trim. Covered under Leonardo’s international warranty, it offers peace of mind alongside luxury.
