Gioia Fountain Pen - Metis - Terre di Napoli with Gold Trim

Metis is practical intelligence, the ability to solve everyday problems with clever and unconventional solutions. Its strength and elasticity come from experience.

The more experiences you gain, the more your practical intelligence sharpens.

The body contains a portion of that intelligence, which we develop through experience.

Systematic and rational thinking is logos; metis cannot be learned except through practice.

Unpredictability, polymorphism, flexibility, and the ability to adapt quickly to different situations give people the power to bend circumstances to their advantage.

Gioia Métis 2.0 - Upscale Pen, Moderate Price

The form factor is classic full-size, the resins are unusual but not ostentatious, the Jovo #6 nibs are perfectly tweaked/tuned at the Gioia atelier (offering just enough feedback to aid control), the piston filling system operates positively and smoothly like it's well-fitted and correctly centred, and the writing experience in my average size hand is a pleasure - zero fatigue, easy and natural feeling nib orientation. The resin body and cap are very nicely finished, with polishing done to a level that is unusual in this price range. I like this pen... a lot.
