Visconti Limited Edition La Bibbia Jewish Bible Fountain Pen (Broad)

Description

Visconti produces Restricted editions with themes that affect, change or describe our lives – its new collection is devoted to the religions of the arena. The primary within the series makes a speciality of the Bible, essentially the most read and revealed book on the earth, and the religions linked to it – Christianity and Judaism. The massive pens are hand-turned from ivory-colored resins and the usage of a scrimshaw method, drypoint engraved and full of India ink. Intricate drawings depict scenes from the Old Testament on the barrel: Adam & Eve, Noah’s Ark, David & Goliath and the Ten Commandments. The Jewish version is meant to have a classical, ancient glance in natural, unadorned ivory – the cap represents a religious moment of prayer on the Wailing Wall. Hidden within the blind cap is an engraving of a Temple. The Christian version is painted in delicate colors via a troublesome method never before used on a pen. Its cap options the tale of Jesus: his Birth, Baptism, the Last Supper and his Ascent into Heaven. A picture of the Holy Grail is hidden within the blind cap. Both pens have a decagonal crown and finish cap, the latter engraved with the Ten Commandments in Hebrew. The fountain pen is fitted with Visconti’s two-tone, 18K gold nib and includes a power piston-filler. Restricted to 999 fountain pens and 199 rollerballs all over the world.
