Note from Scott Franklin:
This edition was designed in concert by an Italian artisan house specializing in this kind of work. I gave them the general theme and they created this look - featuring three distinct option. The first is a sterling overlay on a black 03M with the flame motif. Then we introduce for the first time hard baked enamel in the color of flames, one still on a black pen, and one on a red pen. Hard baked enamel is found on exclusive LE pens through history. It requires heat of 800°C - 850° C (1400-1550° Fahrenheit) and creates a hard and colorful surface. We don't number these pieces, but the production will remain intrinsically rare to less than 20 pieces of each.

$1200 - $2000

This design is the first in a series of four - released now with the Onde d'Acqua di Christoph model featuring blue water and waves.

More on the full pen:

The Modified 03 features a solid one piece cap. This design we also often use for our maki-e limited edition pens. So the cap is slightly shorter, with no finial or disk as compared to the regular 03, which means no clip option. 

 Iterum is Latin for "again" or "once more" as the Model 03 is designed in the spirit of our original Model 01 IPO. Straight sides with very subtle tapers down toward the ends. Mostly flat top and bottom with just a hint of the normal Franklin-Christoph bevel on each end. 

 Threads on the end of the grip for comfort. This also allows for precision posting so there is no creaking or wobbling when the pen is posted. 

 #6 Size nib - with many tip options in factory or custom ground.

 Cartridge - piston converter - eye dropper filling options. 

 Made in USA. Overlay made in Italy.
