Visconti – Looking East (LTD)
”The journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step.” – Lao Tzu
Introducing a brand-new fountain pen from Visconti – Looking East , an exquisite embodiment of artistry that takes inspiration from the timeless allure of traditional Asian architectural beauty.
In ancient Eastern societies, a home was not just a place to live; it was an expression of personal style, social status, and affluence. This deep-seated relationship between architecture and individual identity resonates in the intricate design of our Looking East line.
The Looking East fountain pen showcases a captivating aesthetic, with rose gold vermeil filigree gracing the pen’s body in a mesmerizing pattern of repeated squares. This intricate detailing elegantly contrasts with the lustrous, deep blue resin beneath, creating a visual masterpiece that encapsulates the essence of both tradition and contemporary flair.
What distinguishes this fountain pen is its meticulous attention to detail. Each filigree frame undergoes meticulous engraving, meticulously crafting a hollow cylinder of silver and finishing it with precious rose gold. This process underscores our unwavering commitment to craftsmanship and the relentless pursuit of excellence that characterizes “Looking East”
Beyond being a mere writing instrument, this fountain pen is a testament to the opulent heritage of Asian design and the profound connection that exists between architecture, identity, and craftsmanship.
A limited edition of only 188 pieces available worldwide.
