CHINESE NEW YEAR
Chinese New Year 2024 is the Year of the Wood Dragon, which begins on February 10 and ends on January 28, 2025. The dragon is a symbol of strength, courage, creativity and innovation in Chinese culture, and the wood element adds flexibility, adaptability and growth to its energy. 2024 is expected to be a year of potential and opportunity for those who are willing to embrace change and challenge themselves.
THE DRAGON: A SYMBOL OF EASTERN CULTURE
Silhouetted against a red background, a traditionally auspicious color, the Dragon figure on the pen’s body is further accentuated by the adept use of colored enameling and by a finely etched dragon-scale texture visible under a layer of semi-transparent enamel. To emphasize its auspicious power and nobility, Visconti designers decided to further enrich the look of the Imperial Dragon by setting a precious red ruby into its eye.
Even the box that holds the pen is a little gem of design inspired by Far Eastern culture, reminiscent of the octagonal structures of Chinese pagodas. The cover of the box features an elaborate engraving on a gold background depicting the Imperial Dragon to which the entire collection is dedicated. A rectangular window allows a view of this spectacular pen.
