Molded from material as ancient as the world itself, Visconti presents the first pen to use genuine Sicilian volcanic lava. The new Homo Sapiens has astounding moisture-absorbent qualities, offering comfort and dryness to the touch. The unique characteristics of lava make it virtually unbreakable and fireproof, with a surface texture unlike any other. Each pen features crisp bronze trims, the new 23kt palladium Visconti dream touch nib, and a collectable piece of Mt. Etna lava.
