HOMO SAPIENS Arizona Sunset
For Visconti, the HS Arizona Sunset collection represents an emotionally charged journey through the Arizonian landscape, where the sunset becomes one with the fiery colours of the desert.
The state of Arizona is rich in evocative landscape and natural resources. It is home to the imposing Grand Canyon, one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World. Our craftsmen took the variety of colours that paint the canyon walls at sunset as inspiration to painstakingly recreate a harmony of warm and amber hues in acrylic resin on the cap and barrel of the pen.
The etymology of the name "Arizona" is unclear; it may originate from a term in the O’odham language, "alĭ ṣon" (small spring), or from "aritz ona", the Basque words for good oaks.
It is also called Grand Canyon State, Baby State or Sweetheart State, the latter due to the fact that it joined the US on Valentine’s Day.

Visconti’s history began in Florence, Italy. A cradle of art and culture, Florence also known for being home to one of the Country’s largest industrial districts for luxury and fashion.
The company is the brainchild of Luigi Poli and Dante del Vecchio, two friends who met in Florence and decided to turn a common passion into business by founding Visconti on October 20, 1988.
On that date, luxury writing instruments began to make their way in a city that was strongly linked to jewellery, leather goods and any other form of art. Over time, Visconti products became iconic pieces that helped to spread Italian values worldwide: design and creativity, craftsmanship and innovation, quality and luxury.
