VISCONTI HOMO SAPIENS BALLPOINT PEN.

A Homo Sapiens Ballpoint pen by Visconti.

This one has been used however has been very well looked after and boxed.

Visconti Homo Sapiens ‘Bronze Age’ is a beautifully unusual fountain pen. Made from basaltic lava from Mount Etna in Sicily, the barrel is matt black, with tiny pale inclusions just visible. Polished black barrel- and Bronze cap rings .

It’s virtually unbreakable, heatproof to over 100 °C and slightly hygroscopic in that it can absorb moisture from your hands. This last property, in combination with the warm and very tactile feel of the material means that this pen has a unique quality to the touch.

Quick-action bayonet fitting cap with the characteristic ‘Visconti’-inscribed sprung pocket clip in polished black. Barrel ring is inscribed ‘Homo Sapiens’.

The pen works with a twist mechanism and is fitted with a refill ( refill may require replacing soon )

The pen comes with its box and service guide booklet.
