Visconti Comedia Fountain Pen Collection
Visconti embarks on a new journey through Dante’s immortal masterpiece, the Divine Comedy. This special limited edition is dedicated to the timeless figures that have represented the human soul throughout centuries of literature and history.
The first two protagonists in this ongoing series, Virgilio and Caronte, pay homage to the guiding wisdom and the unrelenting force of fate that shape the journey of the afterlife.
Virgilio, the venerable poet and Dante’s unwavering guide through Inferno and Purgatorio, embodies reason, wisdom, and the pursuit of knowledge. Always depicted in a flowing white tunic and crowned with laurel, Virgilio is now immortalized in a writing instrument that reflects his timeless elegance.
The Virgilio pen features a refined acrylic resin body in shades of ivory, transitioning into hints of laurel green and touches of fire red, symbolizing wisdom and the passion for enlightenment. Adorned with bright yellow gold trims, this pen is a tribute to the poet’s noble spirit. The central ring is engraved and enameled with Virgilio’s name, a signature of his eternal legacy.
The Caronte pen embodies this energy through a striking dark gray-blue coloration, evoking the turbulent waters of the infernal river. Dark ruthenium finishes enhance its shadowy aura. Also in this case, Caronte’s name is engraved and enameled on the central ring, just as the cap’s finial is also finely engraved and enameled.
Both Virgilio and Caronte pens are available in fountain pen, rollerball, and ballpoint versions, each limited to 999 pieces.
With this new limited edition, Visconti continues to honor the literary and artistic heritage of Italy, transforming symbols of human nature into masterful writing instruments.
