DELTA  LIMITED EDITION JVBILAEVM 2000 BLACK FOUNTAIN PEN

The Event

Every 50 years for thousands of years celebrations for the anno del jvbilaeum (Holy year o f the jubilee) have been taking place. In the year 2000 as the jubilee year coincides with the beginning of the 3rd millennium celebrations will be even more grand.  

The ultimate derivation of the word JVBILAEVM (jubilee) is disputed, but it is most probable that the Hebrew word JOBEL, to which it is traced, meant "a ram's horn", and that from this instrument, used in proclaiming the celebration, a certain idea of rejoicing was derived. Further, passing through the Greek IOBELOS, the word became confused with the Latin jubilo, which means "to shout", and has given us the forms jubilatio and JVBILAEVM, now adopted in most European languages.  

For the Israelites the year of Jubilee was in any case preeminently a time of joy, the year of remission or universal pardon. It has been celebrated every fiftieth year and as it falls in the year 2000 it will be more special and more celebrated.  

For this very special event the Vatican will be the focal point of these celebrations. Rome , Italy has already started making special arrangements for this celebration during which more than 10 million people are expected to attend.  

 

 

The Writing Instrument  

Due to the importance of such an event Delta was the first pen company to present a collection celebrating the jvbilaevm and the beginning of a new Millennium.

This collection is Delta's most important creation to date. To offer such an important creation a specially designed new 18 kt solid gold nib was created, and can be identified by the word Millennium which is engraved in the top of the nib.  

As the Vatican will be the focal point of the JVBILAEVM celebrations in Rome ; Delta contracted a known Italian artist to sculpture, in both solid sterling silver and in 18 Kt gold a miniature of the Piazza of the Vatican . This sculpture surrounds the cap of the JVBILAEVM 2000 (limited edition) collection.  

The pen body is also covered with a sculptured sleeve in both solid sterling silver representing an antique column with the words Jobel, Iobelos and Jvbilaevm engraved on it.
