Homo Sapiens Resins Expand the Range
With the new Homo Sapiens Dark Sapphire and Dark Emerald collection, Visconti explores the tension between darkness and light, between the depth of matter and the brilliance - at times hidden - of precious stones.
The new Dark Sapphire and Dark Emerald are the result of meticulous material research, born from the harmonious fusion of resins and pigments that blend into soft, irregular veins, illuminated by a metallic finish that evokes the natural gleam of the rarest gemstones.
The contrast between black and the shades of green or blue creates a dynamic perception of the material, as if light itself were flowing within it. The deep blue of the resin, traced by veins of profound black, evokes the enigmatic allure of sapphire, a gem symbolizing clarity of mind and inner wisdom.
Every element has been designed to enhance the chromatic depth and purity of the design. The Homo Sapiens Dark Emerald, enriched with a yellow gold plating, radiates a warm, vital energy; the Dark Sapphire, plated in palladium, reflects the refined coolness of lunar metal.
14k Gold Nib
At its heart, a large 14k solid gold nib, designed to deliver an exceptional writing experience, mirrors the artistry and craftsmanship that define Visconti's legacy. Visconti's 14k gold in-house nib hand-crafted and manufactured in Florence, Italy is available in EF, F, M, and B widths.
Don’t Miss the 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 for Convenience
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.
