Visconti Rembrandt Merry Go Round Fountain Pen

The Visconti Rembrandt is made from variegated resin, with platinum plated trim. It is available in blue, ivory, red and black. The innovative magnetic caplock system works brilliantly – why aren’t more pens made like this? It fills using a cartridge or converter, which can be purchased separately.

We say: Rembrandt’s paintings are characterized by luxuriant brushwork, rich colour, and a mastery of chiaroscuro. He’d have liked this! The Rembrandt is a fantastic entry level pen to the Visconti range. The vibrant variegated resin captures the spirit of Rembrandt, whilst the appointments and finish suggest an opulence not usually found in this price range. It is not a big pen, but has satisfying weight and good balance.

The fountain pen has an excellent and responsive steel nib in fine, medium or broad. The cap attaches magnetically to the body of the pen – secure but amazingly convenient. Why hasn’t anyone else thought of this? Overall, a pen that punches well above its weight. Well, price, anyway!
