Like you I'm a big fan of FP's from the Nino-Marino-stable. The Delta is an affordable, well made FP coming in different stylish color creations, even matte black. You're right with your assessment and about the color of the Happiness model. Either you love it or you don't take second look at it.
The resin is by McKenzie Penworks and is called Unicorn Poop. I have this resin in a pen turned by Braxton Frankenbery of Divine Pens Plus from W. Palm Bay, Florida. It's interesting that both Delta and Esterbrook have both released pens in this resin, at the same time. Who does it better?
@@fountainpentherapy I have two Esterbrook pens; both are fine pens, good writers and well constructed. One of them was a gift and my very first fountain pen. The other one is a very special edition that sold out. Other than those two pens, I am not especially interested in them and mainly it's their price that deters my interest. Epitome Pens uses a lot of the same resins and their pens are more reasonably priced.
Hi Vincenzo! Thanks for the rundown of the Delta Duna! I really like the size and features of the pen, but am not enthused by the color scheme, either. Fortunately, other colors seem to be available!
I think you need to ask yourself if paying the price to acquire this pen represents good value for money before giving it 10/10. IMnot-soHO, it’s too muck for an off-the-shelf Jowo Stainless Steel nib.

For some reason Esterbrook just does not attract my attention.

Beautiful pen, the colours are very feminine. Depending on price, it will probably be joining my pen family
Bravo pour le français 😊
Thank you so much for this review!
You are very welcome!

Thanks Vincenzo, now i need a dish of Spumoni.
Nice size, shape, weight and resin material. But that color! It truly is not for me. Great review, Vincenzo.
I like to pronounce it Monny Blonny 😉. Some of you will get that reference...
I like to pronounce it very expensive or much money depending upon the day.
Guess I should have said many bucks
I love Delta, but it’s a very feminine pen. Very beautiful. I might buy it for my wife or daughters, but I don’t see that pen in my hands….
