Visconti presents Checkmate, a luxurious pen that goes far beyond the
limits of a traditional writing instrument.
Drawing inspiration from the
timeless elegance and strategic depth of chess, Checkmate embodies
sophistication,
creativity, and ingenuity—a masterpiece for those who
desire both distinction and interaction.
Checkmate is not only a statement piece, it is also an immersive
experience. The pen itself serves as an outstanding
miniature
chessboard, crafted in a unique, three-dimensional cylindrical design
that reimagines the traditional 8x8 chess
grid with 64 brown and ivory
colored squares encircling the length of the pen. A special magnetic
closure keeps the chessboard pattern perfectly aligned.
The Checkmate collection is available as a fountain pen featuring a
double reservoir power filler and an 18kt gold nib or rollerball,
boasting a harmonious blend of artistry and functionality limited to
only 88 pieces worldwide (a number that echoes the traditional 8x8 chess
grid).
