I don't so much care what it's called; I just love the pen and want more of them. It was advertised as a Rialto made in the UK and it writes like a dream. I went to look for more of the same on ebay so I can have one to carry around as well as one or two to have at home, but all the Rialtos I see there have dark endcaps. The one I bought has gold endcaps. I'm attaching the only photo that came out even close to in focus. Let me know if I should take more.
