Calypso Mother-of-Pearl piston-filler by Santini Italia, numbered 28/98.

 

Most Santini pen models and colourways are expressly ‘limited edition’, presumably on account of not intending to produce or source more of a particular pattern of acrylic or ebonite for their pen bodies. There are other Santini pen models, for example the Atene, with the same core design; but the Calypso is the only one using mother-of-pearl for the panels on the faceted barrel, bracketed by muted blue ebonite parts of the body.

They seem to source their ebonite from SEM, and I believe the models Santini call limited editions often source SEM limited edition ebonite.
