"Play is the highest form of research." – Albert Einstein
A masterpiece of artistry and ingenuity, the Visconti Maze Fountain Pen is more than a writing instrument, it is a journey through myth and play. Crafted in transparent acrylic resin, its barrel encases a golden labyrinth navigated by a ruby sphere, paying homage to the legendary Minotaur and the myth of Theseus and Ariadne. Each movement of the sphere transforms writing into an experience of discovery and wonder.
The pen is crowned with an 18kt yellow gold nib, available in Extra Fine, Fine, Medium, Broad, and Stub 1.3mm, a testament to Visconti’s dedication to precision and fluidity. The Maison’s thinnest Power-Filler system yet is seamlessly integrated within this architectural marvel, uniting functionality with elegance.
Details such as the aged palladium trims, gold-plated clip, red enamel accents, and Minotaur sculpture at the barrel’s end complete the design with refinement and balance. Limited to just 188 pieces worldwide, this fountain pen is not only a tool for writing but also a symbol of art, culture, and timeless craftsmanship.
An heirloom creation, the Maze Fountain Pen invites collectors and connoisseurs alike to embrace the beauty of play, myth, and mastery in every stroke.
