Art, Culture and Craftsmanship
With Maze, Visconti continues its path of pens inspired by the world of games, once again turning the act of writing into an interactive experience that combines aesthetic refinement and playful engagement.
The transparent acrylic barrel houses a golden labyrinth, crafted with the highest precision. A small ruby sphere navigates the intricate paths along a journey of challenge and ingenuity until it reaches the central plaza in aged bronze.
In the barrel end, a golden sculpture depicts the head of the Minotaur, guardian of the labyrinth and tribute to the legend of Theseus and Ariadne. Each time the sphere falls into the maze’s recesses, its journey begins anew from the Minotaur’s mouth, transforming the game into an endless cycle of myth and delight.
The cap, engraved and filled with red enamel, echoes the ruby sphere’s color, while the rings, section, and nib collar in aged palladium, together with the gold-plated clip and the Visconti logo in red enamel, complete the design with harmony and elegance. To house this internal architecture, Visconti developed the thinnest Power-filler system ever created. Completing the creation is the 18k yellow gold nib, a symbol of the Maison’s excellence.
Maze is more than a pen: it is an invitation to challenge, a precious object that unites myth, aesthetics, and artisanal mastery, carrying forward with consistency and passion the values that guide every Visconti creation.
