VI002: Visconti Van Gogh Maxi, boxed.

Date: c2008

Size: Length - 5 3/4 inches capped; 6 5/8 inches posted.

Visconti have recently discontinued their popular Van Gogh range of pens.  Just before they did so, I purchased some of their stock at a good price, and I am now able to pass that good price on to my customers.  This pen is brand new, boxed, and complete with its full manufacturer's warranty.  It is unused, and of course, undamaged.

The Maxi is an oversized Van Gogh model.  It is torpedo shaped.  The cap is fitted with a spring-loaded curved Visconti pocket clip, and a very wide and ornate cap lip band that also bears the Visconti name.  This is a cartridge/converter pen, and a screw-in Visconti converter is already fitted, but you can use the standard "International" sized ink cartridges if you prefer.  The metal section has an attractive decorated band at the end, and the nib is a huge two-tone example in a medium point.  

The box has a crocodile pattern on the outside, with a cream coloured interior.  It includes a bottle of Visconti ink just to get you started, and below the pad is the instruction/guarantee booklet.  There is also a yellow outer card case.

The normal retail price for this pen is £179.00.
