Visconti Homo Sapiens LE Bronze Travel Edition fountain pen 18kt Au M nib MIB:
$1104.51

I am selling a Visconti Homo Sapiens Limited Edition Bronze Travel Edition oversize fountain pen. One of a limited series of 300 such pens for the world market. Made of lava, with bronze metal appointments. Power filler, with the solid bronze end cap being the plunger knob. Push and turn cap closure. Visconti\'s proprietary/in-house large 18kt gold (rose-gold-plated) Medium nib adorns this beauty. (The last photo shows the Medium and Fine nibs... only one will be fitted and sent.) Mint, boxed, with papers, and accompanied by special traveling inkpot and eye dropper. Approximate dimensions... length closed 14.5cm, length open 13.3cm, width at widest point on cap (excluding the clip) 1.7cm, and weight empty is 50g. Group photos are for illustrative purposes only... only one pen will be supplied.This pen was produced by Visconti as part of the enlarged Homo Sapiens range. It is characterized by the beautiful solid carbon fibre cap and barrel, complemented by bronze metal bands, rings, and clip. Note that the bronze metal will tarnish, and can be cleaned/polished with a suitable cloth.Please note that the exact lava texture on the pen to be shipped will differ from that in the photos, though the variations in the distribution of natural lava spots and blemishes are generally subtle, and inconsequential for practical purposes. Approximate dimensions: length closed is 14.7cm, length open is 13.4cm, width at widest point on cap (excluding the clip) is 1.55cm, and weight empty is 47g. Purchase with confidence. This is a beautiful \"daily-writer\" pen, from a truly wonderful pen manufacturer. Feel free to contact me for any further information.

An important note regarding Visconti’s23kt palladium large Dreamtouch nib.

The Visconti 23kt palladium large Dreamtouchnib can be a joy to write with, provided it has been tuned properly. Unfortunately factory settings are notoptimal for some fountain pens that are new \"out of the box\", and occasionally tuning isrequired.

After purchase and before sending eachVisconti fountain pen fitted with a large Dreamtouch 23kt palladium nib, I willremove the nib unit, put it in my tester pen, and check (and adjust asnecessary) to ensure it writes correctly. Then I will wash the nib unitthrough, clean it and put it back inside the purchased pen. In this way I canbe sure the pen will write correctly.

Some minor droplets or ink/water residuemay become apparent around the nib or inside the barrel when the pen isreceived, as a result of air pressure changes during courier air transport. I will warrant the performance of the nibunit as a consequence of the aforementioned procedure.

If the buyer prefers this procedure notbe undertaken, a message to that effect should be left with the order. However,in such circumstances the writing performance shall not be warranted, and Iwill not accept returns on account of the writing performance of the nib.

Combined Shipping Discount

I offer a combined shipping discount for multiple listeditems, but only in circumstances whereby the multiple items are being purchasedon one and same invoice/transaction showing the reduced/adjusted combinedshipping rate. This requires the buyer to request a total for multiplepurchases prior to payment, or to defer payment after the multiple itempurchase commitments are made, prior to payment, so that I can make thenecessary adjustment to the invoice and submit it to the buyer for payment.

If you do not know how to request a total, or are unableto defer payment when the purchase commitment is made, please refer to andits online instructions.

I do not offer combined shipping discounts for itemspurchased separately, and/or outside the procedure outlined above.

The reason for this policy relates to the fact that as a matter of course does not automatically retrospectively refund sellerfees/commission expenses for retrospective shipping expense adjustments onseparately purchased/paid-for items, leaving the seller with the administrativeburden and related expense of claiming rebates at a later date via a cumbersomeprocedure.

Shipping and other delays may occur

While we will make every endeavour to dispatchthis item in a timely fashion, delays with couriers/postal agencies, as well asimport authorities (eg. Customs) in the buyer’s country, can occur and thesedelays can be up to weeks, if not months (as may be experienced with recent world-wideevents). In buying this item, the Buyer is acknowledging that such delays mayoccur, and are out of the Seller’s control, and the Seller is not responsible forthem.
