Dreaming Starry Night is the crowning achievement of a grand journey spanning
more than twenty years, driven by a passion for art, a love for beauty, and a dedication to quality. The first Visconti pens dedicated to Vincent Van Gogh date back to 2001, and since then, they have never stopped celebrating the life and works of the great Dutch painter, along with the infinite beauty that surrounds us.

The design of the collection is inspired by Van Gogh's famous impasto brushstrokes which, through the application of thick layers of oil paint, gave his masterpieces their characteristic vibrant effect. To recreate this feeling, the barrel and cap of the Dreaming Starry Night pen are crafted using the ancient sculptural technique of lost-wax silver casting. This way, by touching the pen, one can feel the ridges and swirls that characterize Van Gogh's works. On this silver micro-cast base, an enamel layer is applied, recreating the most famous work of the Dutch painter: The Starry Night. Each pen is meticulously hand-enameled by master artisans to pay homage to Van Gogh's pictorial mastery.

Even the smallest details of the Dreaming Starry Night are designed to celebrate art. In fact, the clip is a micro-cast in yellow gold-plated silver, representing a paintbrush, the painter's primary tool. The band features the artist's signature, engraved and highlighted with a blue enamel layer that elegantly contrasts with the yellow gold-plated metalwork of the pen.

The fountain pen version features the iconic Visconti Power Filler Double Reservoir filling system and an 18kt yellow gold nib.

The pen is complemented by a special stand reminiscent of the world of painting, designed as a precious frame resting on its easel. The canvas also features Vincent Van Gogh's golden signature and a plaque bearing the Visconti logo and the name of the collection. In this way, the Dreaming Starry Night can be displayed at the center of the canvas- the most fitting context for a true work of art.
