Visconti Year of the Dragon

The Year of the Dragon captures the majestic beauty and elegance of Chinese traditions while showcasing the artisanal skill and creativity of Visconti craftsmen, who have meticulously crafted every detail.

Visconti and the Year of the Dragon

Visconti has been synonymous with exceptional craftsmanship, innovative design, and a passion for writing since its inception, captivating pen enthusiasts each year with its distinctive focus on high-quality craftsmanship and attention to detail. Each Visconti pen is a work of art in itself, meticulously designed and crafted by skilled artisans who strive for perfection in every detail.

THE DRAGON

This year, Visconti continues its legacy of excellence with the launch of the Year of the Dragon, an impressive pen that pays homage to the power and majesty of this fascinating creature from Eastern mythology.

Visconti Year of the Dragon

El dragón es un símbolo de fuerza, coraje, creatividad e innovación en la cultura china, y el elemento madera agrega flexibilidad, adaptabilidad y crecimiento a su energía. El dragón de cinco garras estaba reservado para el emperador y la nobleza, quienes afirmaban ser descendientes del dragón.

MATERIALS

This pen is crafted from gold-plated sterling silver, intricately engraved. Silhouetted against a red background, a traditionally auspicious color, the figure of the dragon is further accentuated by the adept use of colored enameling and by a finely etched dragon-scale texture visible under a layer of semi-transparent enamel. To emphasize its auspicious power and nobility, Visconti designers decided to further enrich the look of the Imperial Dragon featured on the barrel by setting a precious red ruby in its eye. Even the clip detail is conceived to represent a golden Chinese dragon flying high over the clouds.

The 18-karat gold nib maintains Visconti's excellence and bears the classic Florentine logo engraved on it.

THE BOX

The box that holds the pen is a little gem of design inspired by Far Eastern culture, reminiscent of the octagonal structures of Chinese pagodas. The cover of the box features an elaborate engraving on a gold background representing the imperial Dragon and the name of the piece. A rectangular window allows a view of this spectacular pen.
