Visconti Homo Sapiens Demo Stones Fountain Pen Sapphire Bold (KP15-16-FP-B)

Vivid clear resins meet the iconic design of the Homo Sapiens collection. Transparency, depth and fluidity meet with light. Three sample colors have been selected by Visconti for this collection, each inspired by the beauty of the most sought-after colored gemstones.

For the colours of the Homo Sapiens Demo Stones, we were inspired by the beauty of the most sought-after coloured gems. Emerald for dark green, sapphire for deep blue and ruby for intense red. Rubies, sapphires and emeralds have been admired for their rich colours for thousands of years.

Each Demo Stone is designed, crafted and polished in Visconti's Florentine workshop. The body and lid are made of spun acrylic resin and are carefully polished with special felting tools both inside and out to ensure a perfect finish.

Visconti's ability to produce beautiful pointer pens is recognized worldwide. Making the Demo Stones from clear resin was not only a purely aesthetic choice, but also a way to reveal the beating heart of the Visconti demonstrator pen: the dual-reservoir power refill system. Visconti's patented Dual-Channel Power Refill is a unique refill system that provides greater ink capacity and safe use during air flights. The vacuum power filler is made of titanium to resist ink corrosion.

In the “Demo Stones” edition, the semi-transparent colours reveal the soul of this exceptional writing instrument: the Power Filler Double Reservoir filling system, patented by Visconti in 1998. Pen caps use the Visconti 'Hook Safety Lock', a revolutionary closure system so you can close a pen without worrying about the cap accidentally opening and leaking in your pocket.

The fountain pen is further enhanced with Visconti's large 14kt gold nib and comes in a gift box.
