Thanks very much for looking at our listing for this Visconti Homo Sapiens Florentine Hills Limited Edition Fountain Pen, which comes with its large lacquered Visconti presentation box (including outer). The pen has been carefully used and is presented in overall lovely condition.
The Florentine Hills is a limited edition of only 1000 pens and this is number 327. As the name suggests, the name was inspired by the landscapes of Tuscany. The barrel is crafted from a clear acrylic, which has brown and green ribbons of resin suspended in it. The cap is a dark green, with brown elements. The trim is sterling silver.
The pen features the patented double reservoir power filler – you simply unscrew the end of the barrel, pull up the rod, place the nib in an ink bottle and push the rod back down to fill! It’s one of our favourite filling systems and the ink capacity is huge.
The pen is fitted with a 23k 1.3 stub nib.
The important details are as follows…
Condition: Lovely
Box: Visconti
Nib: Stub
With every pen that we sell we provide a card that includes the manufacturer, model, serial / limitation number and date it was purchased from us. We do this because our customers like to have documentation showing that it’s been purchased from a trusted seller. As the Financial Times said recently in their How To Spend It publication – “izods is an e-cache of ultra fine fountain pens”.
