Many view the Homo Sapiens as Visconti's flagship model, and the Elegance Oversize makes it available at an affordable price and with the convenience of a cartridge-converter filling system: the pen can use either international style cartridges or any bottled fountain pen ink when fitted with the provided converter.

While we normally only sell pens that are equipped with solid gold nibs, Visconti's 23k palladium nibs are impressive in their own right, offering the highest precious metal content of any currently available fountain pen nib. As always, we provide our complimentary nib tuning services, which help ensure that your pen will be a dependable everyday writer. Visconti palladium nibs also serve as excellent starting points for many our exclusive nib customizations, which add flair and variation to your writing on the page and can also make this pen an excellent choice for the professional or amateur calligrapher.
