Description

HOMO SAPIENS CARBON MOIRÉ

The Homo Sapiens Carbon Moiré is the result of years of experimentation aimed toward achieving the perfect union of cutting-edge technology and unparalleled aesthetics.

The use of unique materials has always been the distinctive feature of the Homo Sapiens family. Inspired by this, our designers embarked on an exhaustive search for advanced materials, particularly drawing inspiration from the craftsmanship of the most prestigious Italian supercars.

“Research is to see what everybody else has seen, and to think what nobody else has thought.“
-Albert Szent-Gyorgyi

HI-TECH MATERIALS

The use of forged carbon gives the pen its characteristic lightness. To emphasize this feature, all metal components are made of grade 5 titanium, a special alloy that is twice as light as brass or steel. This alloy undergoes a controlled natural oxidation treatment, allowing our designers to match the color of the gold leaf present in the resin by harnessing the chemical properties of titanium without using paint.

The natural titanium color is visible on the Visconti clip, thanks to a delicate laser engraving that removes the oxidation, revealing the titanium beneath and creating a refined two-tone effect.

To protect the metal components, a very thin layer of transparent nano-ceramic coating is applied, which stabilizes the color over time and preserves the titanium from potential micro-scratches.

The edition is limited to 226 pieces, in tribute to the atomic numbers of the key chemical elements that give the pen its extraordinary lightness: carbon (6) and titanium (22).
