This new range from Visconti celebrates the work of Spanish Surrealist Salvador Dali, one of the greatest artists from the 20th Century. The eighteen-faceted design is available in fountain pen, ballpoint, rollerball, rollergraphic or mechanical pencil.

The Visconti Salvador Dali Collection sees his painting 'The Persistence of Memory' used as the basis for the inspiration behind the colour and design of this new range. Available in green, brown or blue, reflecting the colours used in his painting, Visconti have also featured Dali's famous melting clocks exquisitely reproduced on the clip of the pen. Salvador Dali's signature is featured around the ring at the bottom of the cap.

In addition to the regular editions, Visconti have also commissioned this Limited Edition range of Fountain Pens, celebrating the works of Salvador Dali. The pen is limited to 904 pieces (referring to the day of birth of Salvador Dali, 1904). The fountain pen uses two famous patents of Visconti, the 23k. Palladium Dreamtouch nib, and the Double Reservoir filling system.

Lobster, one of the great obsessions of Dalí, hard peel and soft interior: this concept has been revisited by the material of the pen in AG 925 enameled but that leave to see the soft interior represented from the ink. Pen is delivered full of ink.

Newton: we can see two open windows on the cap that allow to see the pen interior, the feeder and the nib.

Drawer: the drawer on "Woman Aflame" represents the feminine sensuality, but in the Visconti pen represents the writing sensuality and it is used to fill up the pen.

Melting Watch: we could not resist to reproduce the "Dance of Time I" that décor half portion of the body.

Bleeding Heart: the "Unicorn" is bleeding, but on our pen it is not real bleeding blood… it is represented from the ink that slide gently towards the nib.
