Visconti Homo Sapiens Lava Roller
Item no: KP15-07-RB
€446,28 EUR
The pens are made from a material that is as old as the world around us, lava from the Etna volcano. Lava has never been used for the production of writing instruments before. Visconti has successfully developed a material consisting of more than 50% basaltic lava, together with acrylic resin in a patented formula. The extraordinary properties of lava are ideal for a writing instrument for everyday use.
The characteristics of the Visconti lava pens are:
- Practically unbreakable due to the enormous 'resilience'.
- Scratch resistant.
- Heat resistant, tested to more than 100 degrees Celsius. The pens can easily be left in the sun on the dashboard of a car.
- Hygroscopic, the sweat from the hand is easily absorbed
- Soft, the material feels soft, almost rubbery.
- New, this material has never been used for a writing instrument before.
For the metal parts, Visconti was inspired by the Bronze Age. The clip, the decorative rings and all metal parts are made of bronze (with the exception of the power filler, which is made of titanium). The bronze, a mix of copper and tin, is mixed in the Homo Sapiens in the ancient way, so that the material does not need protection, is almost pink in color and can be easily polished (the package contains a special polishing cloth)..
You can personalize your Visconti pen with Visconti's "My Pen System". The Visconti logo on top of the cap can be easily removed with a small magnet. Two initials can be placed in place of this logo. You canhere find in our webshop.
