Visconti Pens
If you are looking for a Visconti item not listed on our website contact customer service. We are often able to get Visconti pens and inks not listed.
The Visconti company was founded by Dante Del Vecchio in Florence, Italy in 1988. Each Visconti writing instrument is hand crafted to create the highest level of beauty and artistry. Each Visconti pen is made with the highest quality materials and cutting-edge technology making each item truly a masterpiece. Visconti is truly one of the worlds leading manufacturers of fine writing instruments.
Visconti's vision is truly revolutionary with the materials and components they use such as volcanic lava. First introduced in 2010, Visconti created a collection of fine writing instruments using basaltic lava from Mount Etna. The lava is mixed with a patented resin formula creating a virtually unbreakable material. Not only is it unique but both beautiful and function-able.
Visconti has also worked with artist Claudio Mazzi who paints objects for private collectors and large companies such as Maserati, Ducati and Ferrari. Mazzi has created a number of limited edition pieces that are truly remarkable.
Another remarkable invention by Visconti is the double reservoir power filling system in some of their fountain pens. With the addition of a second reservoir the patented filling prevents leakage and is ideal for the traveler.
Each component of their pens have been improved over time both for performance and quality. These and others are just an example of the ingenuity of the Visconti brand setting themselves apart from other pen companies.
Visconti offers a two year warranty on regular edition writing tools that covers all manufacturer defects. Limited edition pens come with a lifetime warranty.

Customer Reviews
Perfect Holy Grail pen!! The Skylight improves on the standard oversize Homo Sapiens at least twofold: it shows the ink levels twice and it has a double ink reservoir. Mine has a stub nib and it writes perfectly (for me). It is however an expensive fountain pen...

I absolutely LOVE this pen. In the past, I have shied away from rollerball, but couldn't pass up this beauty. It fulfills my love of Art Deco styling as well as my love of jewel-toned shades; in this case green. The pen has a nice weight and the rollerball is flawless. This is now my new favorite pen.

I could not be more pleased with my choice. For the price this pen is far superior. It is the smoothest writing and overall design is wonderful. I would not hesitate to buy as a gift or another Visconti fountain pen for personal use. This is now my go to pen. Quality and value is true to the Italian craftsmanship.

This pen writes ok with most inks. It did get a little scratchy with a Robert Oster ink. I’m going to blame that ink. I love the magnetic cap. I would probably buy another one just for that feature!

This is my fifth Visconti Homo Sapiens, and the Blue Lagoon is by far my favorite. The colors and chatoyance simply can't come through in an online picture. I was expecting my fine nib to be 18K gold, but it is a 23K palladium which doesn't matter to me. The tines on mine were slightly misaligned which was easily fixed by me, but this could be a problem for someone inexperienced with these things. Otherwise the fit and finish is excellent, and it's a nice wet writer. I don't know how Pen Chalet acquired the few they had, but I'm ecstatic that I was able to get one. Highly recommended by me.

I have had my eye on the Homo Sapiens Bronze Age for as long as I've been a fountain pen user. I love the design. Additionally, my hands tend to sweat a bit during long writing sessions, so the hygroscopic properties of the lava/resin material intrigued me. That said, the quality control issues one so often heard about Visconti's palladium nibs always kept me from purchasing the pen. But as the Homo Sapiens now comes with an 18k gold nib, I decided to pull the trigger. I love the pen, it's an excellent, smooth writer. My medium sized nib is just north of moderately wet and lays down what I would consider to be a true western-medium line. Pen Chalet's customer service was great, and I received the pen without issue. The pen is certainly on the expensive side, but if you've been eying this one for a long time I don't think you'll be disappointed with what you get.

I was looking for one blue ink as a go to for work. I tested several. This was the ink I liked the best due to the deep blue color. I tested in a fine point Platinum Preppy. The ink flows and writes very well.

This is my first Visconti fountain pen. The Rembrant is a hands-on looking pen. a beautiful deep grey with black nib really sets this pen apart for the standard colors that are offered. The ink at start up was a bit difficult to flow but after it started the pend wrote wonderfully. I was surprised at how smooth the steel nib writing experience was. Ordering online without seeing & feeling a pen in person is sometimes stressful? I'm completely happy with the aesthetic and quality of the pens. Highly recommended.
