Our Story

Their Team

Leonardo Officina Italiana is more than a pen company—it’s a family tradition.

Founded by siblings Salvatore and Mariafrancesca Matrone, the brand carries forward the artistry and passion of their father, Ciro Matrone, who had a key role in founding Delta in 1982 and a mentor for young talents.

From their workshop in Italy, Leonardo creates pens that blend heritage and innovation. Each piece is handmade by skilled artisans, combining timeless Italian design with modern techniques.

With over 50 years of experience behind them, the Matrone family ensures every pen tells a story of creativity, precision, and love for writing.

Our Team

Unlike many modern pen brands that rely on mass production, Leonardo continues the tradition of artisanal pen-making, with each piece carefully crafted by skilled hands.

Each Leonardo pen is a tribute to our refined mastery where art and mechanics came together harmoniously, creating writing instruments that told stories of passion and craftsmanship.
