The Homo Sapiens heritage
The Legacy rollerball shares the Homo Sapiens' generous rounded body, bridge-shaped clip and quarter-turn Hook Safe Lock cap. For this edition, Visconti dresses it in striped blue and red celluloid, a classic material with exceptional depth and warmth.
Celluloid, a collector's material
Celluloid was the material of the great pens of the 1920s and 1930s. It is warm to the touch and has a three-dimensional depth that few modern materials can match, which is why it is reserved for special editions like the Legacy.
Smooth rollerball writing
Inside is Visconti's A4002 rollerball refill with a 0.7mm tip, which glides over the page with very little pressure. It is a superb choice for signatures and for anyone who loves the Homo Sapiens look but prefers not to use a fountain pen.
