The Italian designer Giuliano Mazzuoli was inspired to create the Mini Officina pens based on his lifelong fascination with the tools his grandfather used to build bicycle. He wanted others to appreciate them not as tools, but as writing instruments. The Mini Officina is an extension of his larger Officina series, but in a size more manageable for everyday use. Handcrafted from solid bars of aluminum, the barrel features a Micrometer “tool” finish. The unique clip is adorned with two rivets. The Mini Officinas are available as a fountain pen with a firm, stainless steel nib, or as a capped ball pen that converts to a rollerball with a refill change. With threaded caps and ends, the pens measure only 4 3/8” when closed; 5 1/2” with the cap posted. You’ll appreciate the sturdiness, meticulous craftsmanship and convenient size of the Mini Officina – mechanical treasures for writing!
