Visconti Mythos Odysseus - Ballpoint Pen

Having celebrated the great deities of Olympus, Visconti now opens a new chapter in the collection, dedicated to Greek heroes: more human figures who embody courage, intelligence and determination.
The first to lead the way is Odysseus. On his long journey home to Ithaca, the hero of the Odyssey travels through unfamiliar lands, yields to curiosity and faces obstacles that test his resolve. His strength lies in his ability to read situations, change course and find a way forward even when his destination seems to slip further away.

With Mirage Mythos Odysseus, Visconti explores this tension between the desire for discovery and the connection to one’s roots. It is a theme that resonates across the centuries and finds personal expression in writing: giving shape to thought, preserving an experience and recognising oneself in words.

The resin brings together deep blues, turquoise shades and iridescent reflections. Its veining evokes the waters of the Mediterranean, their shifting character and the play of light across the surface. Gold-toned trims add the warmth of sunlight, balancing the colours of the sea.

The design retains the collection’s distinctive features: the large stainless steel nib, the metal grip section and the central band engraved with “MYTHOS”.
The Visconti V, stylised to echo the outline of Mount Olympus, preserves the connection to the mythological world from which the collection takes its inspiration.

Odysseus is dedicated to those who allow what they encounter to challenge their perspective. To those who see travel as an opportunity to learn, and returning home as a chance to rediscover themselves through different eyes.
