Dreaming Starry Night is the crowning achievment of a grand journey spanning more than twenty years, driven by a pasion 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 Visconti has 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 featured 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, Dreaming Starry Night can be displayed at the center of the canvas - the most fitting context for a true work of art.

"I dream my painting and I paint my dream."

-Vincent Van Gogh

    Upon receiving your order, be sure to carefully handle and inspect merchandise for any damage or defects; should there be a physical problem with the order, let us know as soon as possible by either calling us at  831-626-8828 or via email at info@thepleasureofwriting.com.

    Returns

    At The Pleasure of Writing, we hope that you love what you ordered, but if something is amiss with your order, let us know right away. Upon receiving your shipment, be sure to carefully handle and inspect pens for damage or defect.

    Should there be a defect, we will work with you on a solution. In certain cases we can work with the distributor or manufacturer to replace the merchandise, in which case all shipping and handling will be covered. In the event that a refund is wanted for defective items, we will refund 100% of the sale to the payment method.

    If the reason for return is based on preference, i.e. you received the item and didn’t like some aspect of it though it is fully functional, we will work with customers on a case-by-case basis to determine the best options. In some cases we may offer either store credit or refunds to payment method less a 15% handling fee (to cover the fees we incur from such returns); either way, we are always happy to work with our clients to help them find exactly the right writing instrument.

    Once the necessity of a return has been determined, we will issue a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number, which you should write clearly on the outer box. Return shipping charges will be the responsibility of the customer (except in the case of damage/defect); we recommend shipping via insured ground service with a tracking number.

    Returns must be received in their original state, and include all original packaging (warranty papers, cartridges and converters, etc.), and of course if you need to return a product because it is damaged or defective, we will apologize for the inconvenience and make it right.

    Note that all returns are at the discretion of The Pleasure of Writing. 

    Refunds

    Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item and the status of your refund; if approved, your agreed-upon refund will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your credit card or original method of payment within 10 days. Note that some refunds can take time to process depending on banks and credit card companies; if you haven’t received an expected refund, contact your financial institution first.

    Return Exceptions

    Note that we are unable to accept returns on any item that came free with another product or was purchased on sale, closeout, or other discounts; additionally, we cannot accept returns on any special-order products that can take many months to prepare, or on pens or nibs that have been modified in any way. Neither can we accept returns on used ink, paper, journals, sealing wax, or other supplies.

    Note that we accept inked or dipped fountain pens for return or refund with the 30-day window, but these will incur a 15% fee as we can no longer sell them as new merchandise.

    There is mandatory minimum charge of $49.95 for any repairs regardless of warranty; repairs usually take 8 to 10 weeks, and some items (like vintage pencils) are ineligible for repair.
