Il Magnifico Calacatta Gold
Visconti presents the Seventh Edition of the Il Magnifico collection, in the elegant white and gold nuances of the precious italian Calacatta Macchia Oro marble, in a Limited Edition of 188 fountain pen and 88 rollerball pen pieces.
“The marble not yet carved can hold the form of every thought the greatest artist has.”
Michelangelo Buonarroti
CELEBRATING ART
The Il Magnifico collection, dedicated to Lorenzo de’ Medici, celebrates the most powerful and enthusiastic patron of Renaissance culture in Italy during his reign as ruler of the Florentine Republic. As a patron of the arts, he is best known for his sponsorship of artists such as Botticelli, Leonardo da Vinci, and Michelangelo, who, along with other great Renaissance artists, created outstanding works of both art and science by exploring nature and precious materials.
SHADES OF GOLD
This new edition to the collection, Calacatta Gold, is a type of rare and expensive elegant white Carrara marble with gold veins quarried in the Apuan Alps.
Calacatta marbles have been reserved throughout history for only the most prestigious projects and art works, such as those by Michelangelo and Donatello. It is synonymous with luxury, elegance and sophistication. In fact, its prestige is due to both its quality and rarity: its production in Carrara is limited and controlled as are all the finest products of Italy.
