Visconti Mirage Mythos Fountain Pen – Odysseus

Having paid tribute to the great gods of Olympus, Visconti now opens a new chapter of the Mirage Mythos collection, dedicated to the heroes of Greek mythology – more human figures who stand for courage, cleverness and perseverance. The first of them is Odysseus. On his long voyage home to Ithaca, the hero of the Odyssey crosses unknown lands, gives in to his curiosity and faces trials that test his will – always reading the situation anew and finding a way forward, even when his goal seems to drift ever further away. The Mirage Mythos Odysseus captures this tension between the urge to discover and the bond with one's roots. The sandblasted acrylic resin brings together deep blue, turquoise and iridescent white tones; its veining recalls the ever-changing waters of the Mediterranean and the play of light on the surface, while the yellow gold-plated trims add the warmth of the sun. The pen keeps the signature features of the collection: the large A70 stainless steel nib in yellow gold colour, the brass grip section and the central band engraved with "MYTHOS" and the Visconti V, stylised to echo the outline of Mount Olympus. The magnetic cap closes securely, and the fountain pen is filled with ink cartridges or a converter. A fountain pen for everyone who sees travelling as a chance to learn – and coming home as a chance to see things with new eyes.
