The Visconti Mirage Mythos Athena GT Fountain Pen is a luxury writing instrument inspired by Greek mythology. Greek mythology teaches that the Olympian gods are immortal beings, governing the life and death of human beings. This year we celebrate the goddess Athena, who in ancient Greece was associated with wisdom, warfare and handicraft, but who later, since the Italian Renaissance, became an international symbol of wisdom, the arts and classical learning. The Oxford Companion to Classical Literature tells us that In Homer's epic works Athena's most common epithet is "Glaukopis" that is "bright-eyed" or "with gleaming eyes", which has also been interpreted to mean blue-eyed or grayish blue-eyed, the colors of the sea and wise and alert like an owl. This pen is a perfect inspiration for artists and writers who can channel this muse as they enjoy expressing themselves with this beautiful sea blue Mythos, a color which itself symbolizes serenity, inspiration and wisdom. The cap elegantly closes with a magnetic twist closure, and is accented by gold-plated trim. The center ring is engraved with the inscription, MYTHOS, and a V to emulate a stylized Mount Olympus. The brass grip section has a soft brushed satin finish. The pen is completed with a large #6 steel nib with a yellow gold vermeil finish, made by Schmidt in Germany. A converter is included, and it also accepts standard international short cartridges.
Visconti is an Italian manufacturing company of luxury goods, founded in the late 1980s in Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance and a symbol of Italian craftsmanship. Building on these roots and with a strong drive for innovation, the first fountain pens produced quickly stood out for features that would become true symbols of recognition among enthusiasts: vibrant colors, captivating designs, and high-quality materials. During the 1990s, Visconti developed the high vacuum power filler system (1993), the travel inkwell (1997) and the double reservoir filling system (1998), which consisted of a double reservoir refilling system, to prevent leakage.
