Ducati Pens

Tradition and passion for innovation have inspired the creation of the Ducati pen. The Aquila group, a Neapolitan company that produces and exports the finest pens worldwide, has made all the experience and creativity of its own technicians available to Ducati designers.
Like Ducati, the Aquila family has in its genes passion for design excellence which is the basis for ongoing development. Leopoldo, the firm’s founder, realized that as well as being a writing instrument, the pen could also be an expression of artistry and, therefore, enduring value. Today, Aquila Group brings prestige and market knowledge to a company whose history now covers three generations.
The first thing to notice is weight: exquisite metal details and the polished aluminium cap make the Ducati a well-balanced pen, pleasant to hold, but with a weight that signals quality.
A design faithful to the models that inspired it. The right side of the cap has a chromed cheek with the typical finish of the petrol tanks of the era and bears one of the best-known Ducati logos, the Scrambler eagle. While the band on the cap recalls headlight covers of the time.
The pen’s foldaway clip, whose lines recall the drilled disk of brakes, preserves a particularly linear design, while also guaranteeing efficiency and precision in its function. A simple and particularly effective solution.
The engine is an inspirational element for other components of the pen: the grip above the nib mimics the design of the intake bell and, in all models, the band under the bell becomes a decorative element between the shaft and barrel end.
Every pen is lacquered and some marked by a coloured band that runs along the centre line, typical of the petrol tanks of the motorcycles of the period.
