VISCONTI
LIMITED
EDITION THE
CHRISTIAN BIBLE VERMEIL
FOUNTAIN PEN
Visconti dedicated
this limited editions to the religions of the world. The first in
the series focuses on the Bible, the most read and printed book in the
world, and the religions linked to it – Christianity and Judaism. The
large pens are hand-turned from ivory-colored resins and using a
scrimshaw technique, drypoint engraved and filled with India ink.
Intricate drawings depict scenes from the Old Testament on the barrel:
Adam & Eve, Noah’s Ark, David & Goliath and the Ten Commandments. The
Christian version is painted in subtle colors through a difficult
technique never before used on a pen. Its cap features the story of
Jesus: his Birth, Baptism, the Last Supper and his Ascent into Heaven.
An image of the Holy Grail is hidden inside the blind cap.
The fountain pen is
fitted with Visconti’s two-tone, 18K gold nib and features a power
piston-filler. Limited to 999 fountain pens and 199 rollerballs
worldwide. Fountain pen is bottle fill only.
