Visconti Purple

Recommended Posts

That's the problem with the newer issues. A. the plastic bottles are of course less aesthetic than the glass bottles (IMO). B. The older boxes -- of the older bottles -- were so well constructed that once you managed to get the lid off without a spill, you could still insert the bottle back into the box and fill from there.

 

Wrack!

Just wondering, does anybody know if the bottles are glass, or, as usual today, plastic? And the usual 40 ml? I have a few 75 ml bottles of the Visconti oldies.

I'm still amazed that those beautiful glass bottles are no longer made.

With the new FPN rules, now I REALLY don't know what to put in my signature.

Received the pen and ink a few weeks ago and love it! :bunny01: mine is a fine nib and writes beautifully. My writings with the ink aren't as vibrant but that may be more about the fine nib then the ink. Love it just the same. :thumbup:

EEEEK!:P

 

 

I know, right? :bunny01:

My shop only ordered a bottle of purple for me and one to test. I'm sure Art Brown and Fahrney's will be getting it as well.

And maybe Pen Boutique? Let's hope so!

Maybe if several calls are made from potential customers there will enough stock to go around....

Yes, but will they have Visconti Purple?

 

 

I would think if you called them, or anyone whos sells Visconti products you should be able to locate a bottle. The availablitlity info came from one of the Visconti reps for the US.
