Homo Sapiens Crystal

Visconti conceived the Homo Sapiens collection for real writers, for those to whom the pen continues to represent a traveling mate, a daily friend to share with the same civilization that writing contributed to create. 

The Homo Sapiens Crystal Dream Double Reservoir and Homo Sapiens Dark Crystal Double Reservoir are unique demonstrators, both featuring a large window cut into the pens barrel offering a view of stored ink in the larger ink reservoir and a smaller window in the ring around the pen’s grip offering a view of stored ink in the pen’s second smaller ink reservoir. The user is able to fill the pen with the equivalent of 10 cartridges of ink, and thanks to the two reservoirs, prevents ink from leaking during air travel. It is a musthave for a true Visconti fountain pen collector.

Visconti lava is practically unbreakable, comfortable and warm to the touch, and slightly hygroscopic, and absorbs moisture from the hand. 

Available in fountain pen mode only.

Collections

  • Bottled Fountain Pen Ink

    Choose bottled fountain pen ink if you want the widest color selection and a more refillable writing experience. Bottled ink works with compatible fountain pens using a converter, piston filling system, or other bottle-fill mechanism.

  • Fountain Pen Ink Cartridges

    Choose ink cartridges if you want a simple, convenient refill option with less setup and easier travel. Cartridges are a good choice for everyday writing, school, work, and anyone who wants a faster refill process.

  • Flushing your fountain pen regularly—

    especially when changing ink colors, every six weeks, or before storing the pen—is essential to prevent ink residue buildup, muddy color mixing, and clogged feeds that can lead to scratchy or inconsistent writing.
