Fountain Pen Wish List- Visconti Salvador Dalí The Dance of Time
Visconti pays tribute to Salvador Dali with the launch of
the Surrealist Collection integrating some of Dali's most iconic symbols and
prevailing colors. Dali's originality and unique character were accompanied by
an admiration for tradition and a will for continuity.
For example Dali
consistently added his melting pocket watch imagery to many of his works; for
this reason Visconti has integrated the melting watch onto the Visconti clip.
Dali's signature is engraved on the pen ring and also printed in gold onto the
pen box. This special edition maintains in full the charm of Dali's surreal
creativity.
It is made of plant resin and is available in brown or green with
gold trim and blue with silver trim blue, the colors of the great master's
sculptures. Visconti has meticulously recreated the "Dance of Time I" melting watch in lacquered silver micro-fusion on the Visconti iconic
bridge clip.
Dali's time is perpetual, it moves forward in a dance without ever
stopping either for man or for history, indeed not even for the cosmos. The
signature of the artist is delicately engraved on the pen's ring, "Dali
style".
The pen itself utilizes Visconti's 18 -faceted design, the many
edges enhancing the vivid colors of the pen"s resin. The fountain pen
fills by cartridge or the included converter and is enhanced with a steel nib
available in M, F and B widths.
