Visconti is excited to announce the launch of the new ‘Medici Astral’ collection, Visconti’s first ever collaboration with a US resin manufacturer. Two spectacular resins, each made by Jonathon Brooks of the Carolina Pen Company, are hand turned at Visconti’s Florentine factory into the shape of their iconic ‘Medici’ model. To celebrate this new collaboration, and for the first time, Visconti have added their patented double reservoir power filling system, complete with ink window to the Medici.
As a tribute to one of the greatest dynasties in Italian history, Visconti designed the ‘Medici’. The family was a noble house that stood out for their political, financial, and cultural influence on the city of Florence. Most of all, the Medici family was known for their passionate contributions to the development of Humanism and the Italian Renaissance. The body of Visconti’s ‘Medici Astral’ features an eight-sided facet design, modeled after the Florentine baptistery, a religious place and symbol of the city's glorious past.
Stunning pen, writes very well. Visconti never disappoints me, and this is no exception.
I love this pen. I've wanted to get a Visconti for years and had been just waiting for the right pen. Then this came along. First sight this pen is gorgeous. The weight and size work great for me. Also as I expected its a smooth writer. It was especially cosmically convenient that the last blue one was in my preferred nib.
Chris and the Truphae team sent the Nova Blue to me in just a few days. Thank you. The pen is beautiful. The collaboration with Jonathon Brooks and Visconti produced an amazing pen.
