A must-have writing instrument for every Visconti pen enthusiast
The Homo Sapiens “Crystal Dream” is the latest addition to Visconti’s iconic Homo Sapiens series. It’s an exceptional fountain pen, showcasing all of the unique benefits of the original, award-winning Homo Sapiens with several upgrades and modifications. The crystal ink chamber is the most discernible modification to the body of the pen. A large section of the lava barrel has been cut out of the bens body and replaced with a clear acrylic tube, transforming the pen into a demonstrator with a unique appearance and identity. This window offers the view of stored ink inside the pen. It features an upgraded ‘double reservoir’ power filing system, a vacuum filling system that is easy to use and has considerable benefits. 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. The final change is the small ring around the pens grip section, made of crystal acrylic resin, offers a view of stored ink in the pens second smaller ink reservoir. As with the original Homo Sapiens, the Crystal Dream is made of volcanic lava rock making the pen virtually unbreakable, natural hygroscopic and very comfortable to write with.
