The Delta DV Oversize Fountain Pen - Aged Bourbon Matte brings the warmth and depth of barrel-aged spirits to one of Delta's most recognizable oversized silhouettes. Bronze, tobacco brown, charcoal, and muted gold move through the resin in broad organic currents, while the matte surface softens reflections and gives the material the tactile character of weathered wood and time-darkened oak.
A Truphae Exclusive
Created exclusively for Truphae, Aged Bourbon is limited to just 8 individually numbered pieces in this matte configuration. The small edition allows the natural variation of the resin to remain central to the experience: each pen reveals its own balance of dark grain, smoky translucence, and metallic warmth.
The Aged Bourbon Resin
The color palette draws from the visual language of bourbon aging rather than a literal bottle or label. Deep brown recalls charred oak, muted amber suggests the spirit itself, and black veining evokes the interior of a toasted barrel. The matte treatment reduces surface glare, allowing those layers to appear deeper and more mineral-like than they would beneath a high-polish finish.
The DV Oversize Form
DV is derived from Dolce Vita, or "the sweet life," and the Oversize model gives that idea a bold physical presence. Its broad cap, substantial barrel, spring-loaded roller clip, and decorative center band draw from the visual vocabulary that made Delta one of the most recognizable names in modern Italian pen design.
Writing Experience
A large #8 14k gold nib gives the pen a writing character proportional to its scale. Available in Fine, Medium, and Broad, the nib offers the smooth flow and gentle responsiveness expected from an oversized gold point. Delta pairs it with an in-house ebonite feed, selected for reliable ink delivery and the warm, traditional material character enthusiasts value.
The cartridge-converter system accepts standard international cartridges or bottled ink through the included converter. The threaded cap may be posted, though the pen is deliberately substantial and is especially well balanced when used unposted.
Collector Perspective
This edition is significant not simply because of its small production, but because the matte surface changes the way the resin is read. Rather than presenting Aged Bourbon as a polished decorative material, it emphasizes grain, depth, and atmosphere, giving the familiar DV Oversize a quieter and more tactile personality.
