Saying “writing instruments” is just like saying Visconti. For the past 20 years Visconti is a synonym for writing instruments of extraordinary beauty - historically and technologically studied.
The Italian manufacturer produces fountain pens, roller pens and ball point from its 15th century villa in Florence. The pens are crafted with ancient knowledge and modern techniques – from this blend, new writing instruments have been developed to offer a meaningful contribution in content, innovation and design.
Visconti regularly pays tribute to anything which has left a mark in civilisation. Some of the inspiring themes include the Forbidden City, the ancient knights, the Alchemical Opus, but also Manhattan and Wall Street:Made of Mother-pearled gray Celluloid and polished stainless steel, The Wall Street pens are highly symbolic not only for their shape, "Squaring the Circle," but also for their material, celluloid, which recalls the Manhattan skyline by night from which its name is inspired.
Or The Van Gogh pen collection:
The patterns in this exquisite collection vary from piece to piece, recalling the impressionist paintings of Van Gogh himself.

This is to Certify...
Buying a luxury watch is not less time consuming than buying a house. If you’re going to put in some big money, you probably want to make sure you buy the real deal. There are so many fakes and replicas out there, and when you aim for high, you should really watch out.
- Watch out from too good to be trues. Luxury watches aren’t being sold in a hotdog stand on the street. Prices of luxury watches can’t be 100 dollars. A good watch costs good money, period. Luxury watch can be on sale. But they never go under 50 percent.
- Look for serial number. Stolen watches or fake watches will not have a serial number. A serial number should be engraved on the watch and should come with all the relevant paperwork.
- Go to the manufacturer’s website. See if the model you’re interested in exists on the manufacturer’s website.
- Google your watch. You’re googling everything anyhow. There are numerous sites and reviews and forums with many discussion boards about luxury watches.
- You can also find interesting tips and information.
