Crafted from vibrant orange resin with rich, dark undertones, the pen's body mirrors the striking color palette of the iconic Vertigo poster designed by the legendary American graphic artist Saul Bass. A stunning two-tone enamel engraving in black and ivory coils around the pen, recalling the poster's hypnotic spiral motif - a visual metaphor for the disorientation, obsession, and psychological complexity that define the film's narrative.
In homage to Hitchcock's singular authorial identity, the cap features a finely engraved and enameled reproduction of his signature, affirming the creative authority of a director whose influence reshaped cinematic storytelling. The design is further refined by the polished palladium metal accents, distinctive white-enameled Visconti finial, and a specially crafted central ring - engraved and enameled with both the Visconti logo and Hitchcock's iconic profile, alongside the emblem of the Hitchcock Foundation.
More than just a writing instrument, the Hitchcock Vertigo pen is a tribute to human imagination and the enduring power of the arts. It celebrates the emotional depth, visual innovation, and narrative intensity that define Vertigo and reflects the artistic spirit that drives our own designers. This pen is an invitation to transform inner visions into tangible expressions - to write, to create, and to dream. Embracing the legacy of Alfred Hitchcock and the mesmerizing world of Vertigo fills us with immense pride, as we continue to honor the arts in all their forms.
The fountain pen features Visconti’s respected steel nib which is available in fine, medium and broad. It refills via cartridge or the included converter for bottle ink. Pens are shipped in a Hitchcock customized box which boosts the tribute to all things Visconti and Hitchcock.
