Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the difference compared to the Forever Piuma Italian Beauty Ethergraf?
The Piuma Italian Beauty Ink (€49) uses a ballpoint tip with a Schmidt cartridge: ink writing, smooth and immediate, suitable for everyday use. The Piuma Italian Beauty Ethergraf (€49) uses the Ethergraf® tip: inkless writing through paper oxidation, more poetic and contemplative. Same design with Francesco Corni's illustrations, same pear wood, same base. The choice depends on your preferred writing style.

Is the Schmidt cartridge replaceable? Where can I find it?
Yes. The Piuma Ink uses a Schmidt S635 cartridge (D1 format), a very common standard that is easily available in specialized stationery stores or online. It is compatible with many other quality ballpoint pens.

Does each city have a different illustration?
Yes. Each variant has an original illustration by Francesco Corni dedicated to that specific city. The choice is personal: you can choose the city you live in, the one you love the most, or the most significant one for the gift recipient.

How does the base work?
The white painted steel base is designed to hold the stylus at its natural center of gravity, allowing it to rest in horizontal balance. It's a surprising visual effect that makes the Piuma an exhibition object as well as a writing tool.

Is it suitable as a gift for an art enthusiast or a lover of Italy?
Absolutely. At €49, the Forever Piuma Italian Beauty Ink is one of the most evocative gifts in the catalog: pear wood, Schmidt cartridge, Francesco Corni illustrations, steel base, and Italian artisanal production. Perfect for those who love Italy, its cities, and the beauty of artisanal design.
