Visconti Homo Sapiens Limited Edition Lotus Garden Fountain Pen

Prettiest Homo Sapiens Ever?

We’re delighted to announce the latest addition to the Homo Sapiens demonstrator collection - Homo Sapiens Lotus Garden. Visconti is once again inspired by the inexhaustible resources of nature: the Homo Sapiens Lotus Garden brings with it the magic and mystery of the lotus flower, in a limited edition of just 888 pieces.

This impeccably handcrafted pen is a prestigious addition to the Homo Sapiens Demonstrator Visconti family. The deep colors of Lilac, white and green leap from this resin. No two pieces in the world are alike due to the beauty and composition of the resin.

For the return of our iconic Homo Sapiens, Visconti imagined the colors of the lotus garden, the fascinating environment which is home to the delicate flowers of the aquatic plant Nelumbo. The lilac, white and green of the pen are accentuated by the new black trim, which recalls the flower’s reflection in dark pond water, adding to its mystery. Each element harmonizes perfectly, creating an elegant and modern collection that invites you to get close to nature and enjoy its incredible power.

Double-Reservoir Power Filler

A vacuum filling system that is easy to use and has considerable benefits. Patented in 1998, this is arguably the most advanced filling system ever developed in fountain pen history. The user can fill the pen with the equivalent of 10 cartridges of ink, and thanks to the two reservoirs, prevents ink from leaking during air travel.

Hook Safe Lock

This revolutionary closing system is very satisfying to operate and was created to lock the pen body into the cap to prevent the possibility of the pen accidentally unscrewing and leaking inside a pocket or bag.

18k Gold Nib

Visconti's 18kt gold in-house nib, hand-crafted and manufactured in Florence, Italy. Available in extra fine, fine, medium and broad widths.
