Description from the seller
A0000003765
The pen is presented in very good overall condition, showing careful preservation in line with a collectible piece from the prestigious Italian brand Visconti. The body, made of multicolored acrylic resin characteristic of the Van Gogh collection, retains an attractive and deep shine, with the beautiful marbled pattern in greens, ochres, reddish tones and amber clearly visible, evoking the painting that inspired this edition. The surface is well preserved, with light micro-signs of handling typical of occasional use, without cracks, breaks or deformations.
The metal elements feature a clean and elegant finish. The clip engraved with the inscription VISCONTI remains firmly attached and well aligned, showing proper polishing and only discreet signs of handling under close inspection. The central ring decorated with the brand name maintains a sharp definition in its engravings, contributing to the refined character of the piece.
The twist mechanism of the pen works smoothly and precisely, extending and retracting the nib correctly, demonstrating proper operation of the writing system. The piece has been checked to ensure proper functioning and is delivered ready for use.
Overall, this is a pen that retains a highly attractive aesthetic presence, with a level of conservation that makes it perfectly suitable for both elegant daily use and as part of a collection dedicated to Visconti or to the Van Gogh series.
Conservation recommendations
To preserve the good condition of the piece, it is recommended to use high-quality refills compatible with the pen’s system, avoid knocks or drops that could damage the resin or metal elements, and store it in a dry place, protected from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Keeping the mechanism clean and operating the twist system gently will help extend the life of the instrument.
It will be shipped in a courtesy box for proper preservation.
Happy bidding!
