Product Description
Type fountain pen
Product Name Pericle 2001, Second Edition/Version
Manufacturer and Year Visconti, Italy -- 2001
Length 5-13/16"
Filling System It takes international style ink cartridges. It is fitted with a converter.
Color Green shimmery resin with white streaks marbled throughout. We can't find much information on the color names of these, but we did find one thread on Fountain Pen Network that called it "Rainforest Green". As the second version of the Pericle, it has a chrome plated end piece and a chrome plated derby to accompany the helmet inspired clip. There is also a chrome plated cap band and section.
Nib Steel Fine steel nib. There is an F on the face for identification. The pen writes very smoothly. Visconti steel nibs run a bit wet and we have found them to be noticeably smoother than most other steel nibs.
Condition Excellent condition. Light handwear and scratching. The chrome plated parts of the cap have some small marks. The cap is not loose and snaps onto the barrel well. The cap imprints are clear.
(Note: in the first image, there's a cloth fiber stuck between the section and barrel. We've removed it and double-checked that there's no crack or scratch there.)
