the erotic art pen



i could not resist buying this off the net when i saw it.
brand new in mint condition, this was selling at one third of the price.
and i'll tell you why i think this is a bargain.

1) it is a limited edition pen #682/1069, a tribute to giacomo casanova and called "the erotic art pen".
2) barrel and cap is made of black lucite with fine brushed sterling overlays depicting two lovers locked in embrace.
3) the pen is a power filler.
4) comes with a matching travelling inkwell.
5) it is my first visconti.

this is what's etched on the pen.



i filled this pen and i found that the power filler is fantastic.
performs much smoother than stipula's power filler.



the nib is medium though writes almost like a broad.
and is a very wet writer indeed!
the ink just gushes forth.
'broad', 'wet', 'gushes', get it?
