Visconti Limited Edition The Forbidden City Red Gold Fountain Pen
- The Forbidden City in Beijing, China, was the exclusive home of the Chinese imperial family for more than 500 years, and today, the elaborate complex of palaces and gardens is one of the greatest achievements in Chinese architecture and culture
- Visconti pays tribute to this legendary place with a unique and fascinating Limited Edition. Rather than a typical metal overlay on resin, the Visconti Forbidden City features resin overlaying a finely engraved metal base
- The design creates a grid pattern that recalls the layout of the Forbidden City as seen from above. Inhabiting the cages are tiny sterling vermeil figures of mythical beings prominent in Chinese Culture

- System: The fountain pen uses double reservoir power filler mechanism
- Nib type: 18Kt gold nib in two tones
