Visconti Comedia Caronte Fountain Pen

Visconti proudly presents the Divine Comedia Limited Edition pens—a stunning tribute to Dante’s immortal masterpiece. Following the success of the original Comedìa Collection, this ongoing series delves into the timeless characters of Dante’s epic, beginning with two iconic figures—Virgilio and Charon—who symbolize wisdom, reason, and destiny.

The Virgilio fountain pen pays homage to the revered poet who guided Dante through the Inferno and Purgatorio. Crafted from refined acrylic resin in hues of ivory, laurel green, and fiery red, the Virgilio pen embodies knowledge and the passion for enlightenment. Gold-finished accents and an enameled central ring bearing Virgilio’s name enhance the pen’s elegant and classical design. It is a timeless reflection of the poet’s wisdom and noble spirit.

In contrast, the Charon fountain pen represents the dark passage into the unknown, evoking the turbulent waters of the Acheron. Its striking dark grey-blue resin is complemented by shadowy ruthenium trim, capturing the ominous energy and mysterious presence of Charon. Like the Virgilio pen, Charon's name is engraved and enameled on the central ring and cap, making it a bold tribute to the guiding force of fate.

Both pens are available in fountain pen, rollerball, and ballpoint versions, each strictly limited to 999 pieces—a nod to the mystical significance of the numbers three and nine in Dante’s work. Visconti’s Divine Comedia pens are not merely exquisite writing instruments—they also carry the literary legacy of Dante’s masterpiece, offering a timeless journey through the power of the written word.

The Visconti Divine Comedia pens honor the literary and artistic heritage of Italy, making them an essential addition to any fine writing collection. Perfect for lovers of art, literature, and masterful craftsmanship, these pens embody the soul of cultural storytelling.

The Visconti Comedia fountain pen features a stainless steel nib and uses a cartridge/converter filling system.

For over twenty years, the name Visconti has been synonymous with writing instruments of extraordinary beauty—shaped by historical depth and technological refinement. From fountain pens to rollerballs and ballpoints, Visconti offers a wide range of premium instruments, each with a strong and unmistakable identity.
