More than twenty years after its first appearance, the 22 is still considered a very tasty fountain pen full of resources. Born at the turn of the millennium, it took its name from the atomic number of titanium, of which Stipula was the first user in the manufacturing of the nib. That nib, synonymous with expressive richness, was inserted into a compact fountain pen but at the same time powerful in performance and easy to maintain. A large capacity piston, integrated into the body of the pen; a transparent tank with a graduated scale, easy to read for those who need to evaluate the residual ink content; a balance in the hand without uncertainties with a front calibration of the weights.
 
Today the 22 Tocco Ferro Deluxe retains all these features, with the addition of a robust and substantial stainless steel alloy body. It also offers a wider choice of writing tips. In fact, alongside the T-Flex titanium nib, there is the 14k gold Stiflex nib available in seven different sizes and the steel nib with its four different tips, including the V-flex with enhanced flexibility.
 
The 22 Tocco Ferro Deluxe Carmine Red offers a body and a cap made of stainless steel, with a technological coating of vaporization of hard metal molecules, which makes the surface of the pen virtually immune to small scratches and nicks, as well as changing its color towards a fascinating matte black. The carmine red barrel adds grit and an out of the ordinary impact to the fountain pen.
