Visconti Medici Fountain Pen - Viola - Italian Purple (Limited Edition)

Visconti is excited to announce the launch of the new Medici Viola Limited Edition crafted from yet another exquisite resin by Jonathan Brooks, of the Carolina Pen Company. This U.S. exclusive, violet-hued edition is limited to 88 pieces and is available as a fountain pen only.

The Medici rulers of Florence were influential patrons of the arts, who fostered a culture of creativity and innovation in the Renaissance period. The Visconti Medici Viola collection pays homage to this important dynasty by crafting a collection of luxury pens that embodies the spirit of artistic excellence and elegance that the Medici family represented.

The Medici Viola features the new demonstrator central ring, made with the skeletonization technique, featuring the official emblem of Florence, the lily. This symbol, found on the city's coat of arms, represents beauty, nobility and pride. "Viola," Italian for "purple," was chosen for its indelible link to the city.

Inspired by the geometry of the Florence Baptistry, the pen's shape was designed following the principles of the golden ratio. The loading system features a capacious power-filler double reservoir and the clip, which was previously laser-engraved, has been replaced with a new enameled version.

The Medici Viola fountain pen features Visconti's 18kt gold in-house nib with rose gold plating, available in EF, F, M, B, and Stub widths.
