Visconti is excited to introduce the Alfred Hitchcock collection - a tribute to the master of suspense, Alfred Hitchcock, a filmmaker whose work has defined cinematic storytelling for generations. Widely considered one of the most influential directors in the history of cinema, Alfred Hitchcock shaped the suspense and thriller genres through groundbreaking films such as Psycho, Rear Window, and Vertigo, collaborating with some of the most iconic actors of the era, including James Stewart, Grace Kelly, Cary Grant, and Ingrid Bergman.
"I'm a writer and, therefore, automatically a suspicious character."
-Alfred Hitchcock
THE LEGACY OF A GENIUS
Retro elegance and visual tension come together in a writing instrument that tells more than it writes. The Hitchcock Collection is available in fountain pen, rollerball, and ballpoint versions—each crafted to deliver a smooth and inspiring writing experience.
The design draws from the visual codes of the 1960s: a glossy black resin barrel paired with palladium trim creates a refined black-and-white contrast, echoing the distinctive cinematographic style of Hitchcock’s films. The cap features a finely enameled reproduction of the director’s signature, a tribute to his iconic role as storyteller and auteur. A specially designed band encircles the pen, showcasing both the Visconti logo and Hitchcock’s legendary silhouette, the emblem of his foundation.
White enamel detailing also enhances the Visconti logo on the cap’s finial, completing a composition that transcends function. More than a collector’s piece, this elegant creation is a true writing companion—celebrating creativity and inspiring the imagination to craft new worlds through the power of self-expression.
These pens - crafted as fountain pens, rollerballs, and ballpoints - feature a classic, traditional design inspired by the unmistakable aesthetics of 1960s cinema. The pen's body is formed from sleek black resin, with palladium accents that provide a refined black -and-white contrast reminiscent of Hitchcock's signature visual style. This understated design is intended not only to evoke mystery and drama but also to serve as a tool that inspires creativity, enabling the user to give life to new worlds, dreams, and works of art.
The cap pays homage to Hitchcock's unique authorial identity: it displays a finely engraved and enameled reproduction of his signature - a clear nod to his legendary status as a storyteller and director. Complementing this detail, the Visconti logo, prominently featured on the finial, is rendered in crisp white enamel. A specially designed central ring further enriches the piece by featuring both the Visconti logo and the iconic profile of Hitchcock, masterfully engraved and enameled together with the logo of the Hitchcock Foundation.
This collaboration with the Hitchcock Foundation is a source of great pride for Visconti, as it underscores their commitment to celebrating creative expression and the arts in all their forms. More than just writing instruments, the Hitchcock collection pens are designed as instruments of imagination - tools that empower users to transform ideas into artistic realities while paying homage to one of cinema's most influential figures.
