Visconti | Medici Dynasty Collection
.
The Medici pens feature an eight-sided facetted design, modeled after the Florentine baptistery, a religious place and symbol of the city's glorious past. Each color has been chosen as a tribute to the ancient luxury materials used in the princely Medici mansions. Visconti continues to pay homage to the much renowned Medici family, with two exciting additions to the Medici Dynasty collection: Blue Imperiale and Black Basilica. You cannot learn the history of Florence without hearing about the much celebrated Medici family. 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. As a tribute to one of the greatest dynasties in Italian history, Visconti has designed two new colors to add to the Rose Sovrano series in the famous Medici Dynasty collection. The body of the pens are enhanced by the Lily emblem (fleur de lis) engraved on the center band that pays homage to the city of Florence. The beautiful colors of the Medici Dynasty collection emulate the semi-precious stone mosaics that embellish the Medici villas. The fountain pen features the Visconti power filler system and is enhanced with Visconti*s large, flexible 18kt gold Perfect Touch nib, available in F, M, and 1.3mm Stub widths, and Visconti*s large, flexible 23kt Palladium Dreamtouch nib available in EF and Broad widths.There is a $35 extra charge for the EF and Stub nib.
