The Story
Here we have a Visconti Opera special edition fountain pen in a rather rare and fetching marbled resin pattern. The pen is Part of Visconti's 'Squaring the Circle' collection, the barrel is squared off giving the writer a sturdy grip and the added assurance it shouldn't roll from your desktop!
The pen carries Visconti's dreamtouch nib, a super smooth looking medium which is a joy to write with. The pen comes boxed, with its sleeve, a Visconti flyer, two Visconti button tassies, a travelling ink well and threaded Visconti ink converter installed.
The Nitty-Gritty
There are no major imperfections to note, no chips splits or engravings.
There are some minor marks and micro-scratches on the cap and the cap band, only minor signs of handling, the pen is fully serviced, cleaned and polished and in near mint condition.
Ink Recommendations
Why not pair with a bottle of J Herbin ink? A bright shimmer ink would suit this pen very well!
