Visconti Galileo Galilei Limited Edition - Fountain Pen

Shipping calculated at checkout.

Visconti is excited to announce the Galileo Galilei limited edition fountain pen. This collection celebrates the life and legacy of one of the world's most influential scientists and intellectuals. Galileo Galilei, born in Pisa, Tuscany, on February 15th, 1564, was a pioneer of scientific inquiry, an astronomer, inventor, philosopher and writer. Galileo Galilei made significant contributions to the scientific method, improved the optical technology for telescopes and discovered many celestial objects, including the four largest moons of Jupiter, which he named after the Medici family of Florence.

The pen's body is made of aged Vermeil and demo resin, which allows the ink level and the unique filling system for this collection to be seen. This system, a tribute to Galileo's technical genius, is similar to our Power Filler Double Reservoir, but without an external piston in the blind cap. This makes refilling safer, cleaner, and more consistent with the pen barrel design and is reminiscent of an ancient telescope. Demo resin is a recurring element of this collection which also appears in the section and in the cap, providing a view of the 18kt gold palladium-plated nib. The decorative elements of the pen recall the Baroque craftsmanship of Galileo's time. In particular, thanks to the variety of materials used, antiqued vermeil and polished palladium, a subtle chiaroscuro effect is achieved. The fine engravings of the demo moon phases and Florentine lilies further enhance this stunning design. The fountain pen features a A new, ';Galileo Double Filler'; filling system that allows for safer and cleaner refilling of the pen and a patented ';double-reservoir'; with moon phase overlay detailing.
The in-house crafted 18kt gold nib features has palladium plating. Onlye 188 pieces were made worldwide.
