Visconti is proud to present the Dreaming Starry Night, the crowning achievement of a grand journey spanning more than twenty years, driven by a passion for art, a love for beauty and a dedication to quality. The first Visconti pens dedicated to Vincent Van Gogh date back to 2001, and since then Visconti has never stopped celebrating the life and works of this legendary Dutch painter.
“I dream my painting and I paint my dream” -Vincent Van Gogh
The design of the collection is inspired by Van Gogh’s famous impasto brushstrokes which, through the application of thick layers of oil paint, gave his masterpieces their characteristic vibrant effect, To recreate this feeling, the barrel and cap of the Dreaming Starry Night pen are crafted using the ancient and sculptural technique of lost-wax silver casting. This way, by touching the pen, one can feel the ridges and swirls that characterize Van Gogh’s works. On this silver micro-cast base, an enamel layer is applied, recreating the most famous work by the Dutch painter: The Starry Night.
Each pen is unique, meticulously hand-enameled by master artisans to pay homage to Van Gogh’s pictorial mastery and ensure the highest level of craftsmanship: the hand-enamel process guarantees that no two are exactly alike, giving to this collection the beauty of individuality.
he variations in color and texture make each pen a unique work of art. This uniqueness adds character and makes each pen a true collector’s item. It’s not just a writing instrument, but a unique creation with its own story and personality.
Even the smallest details of the Dreaming Starry Night are designed to celebrate art, with the pen boasting incredible features:
- A clip micro-cast in yellow gold-plated silver, representing a paintbrush
- The band features Van Gogh’s signature, engraved and highlighted with a blue enamel layer that elegantly contrasts with the yellow gold-plated metalwork of the pen
- The iconic Visconti Power Filler Double Reservoir filling system
- An 18kt yellow gold nib
The pen is complemented by a special stand reminiscent of the world of painting, designed as a precious frame resting on its easel. The canvas also features Vincent Van Gogh’s golden signature and a plaque bearing the Visconti logo and the name of the collection. In this way, the Dreaming Starry Night can be displayed as the center of the canvas – the most fitting context for a true work of art.
