Description from the seller
A0000005909
Exceptional fountain pen from the prestigious Italian firm Visconti, belonging to its acclaimed Opera collection. This piece is a true tribute to Florentine craftsmanship and stands out for its patented "square the circle" design, combining the ergonomics of a faceted pen with the smoothness of a cylindrical body.
The body and cap are made of a fascinating high-quality marbled resin that presents a deep pattern in vibrant orange and brown tones, creating a spectacular play of light and shade. The metal details are heavily platinum-plated. The cap features the iconic Visconti articulating clip (inspired by Florence's Ponte Vecchio bridge) and a wide central ring with the word "OPERA" elegantly engraved.
To guarantee a superlative writing experience, the fountain pen sports a superb solid 14-karat gold nib (14K - 585) in a precious bi-tone finish. As seen in the images, the nib size is B (Broad), ideal for signatures and generous and fluid strokes.
