Limited to 100 pieces of Rollerball Pen to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Tutankhamun's tomb discovery!

Visconti pays tribute with a pen that depicts many of the sacred artifacts and prominent features from Tutankhamun’s burial tomb.

Exactly 100 years ago, the tomb of Tutankhamun, the most famous pharaoh in ancient Egyptian history, was found. Tutankhamun ruled Egypt as pharaoh for over 10 years until his death at the age of just 19, around 1324 B.C. Though his rule was notable for reversing the religious reforms of his father, Tutankhamun’s legacy was largely negated by his successors. He was barely known to the modern world until November 1922, when British archaeologist Howard Carter chiseled into his intact tomb and the discovery made Tutankhamun the world’s most famous pharaoh.

The pen cap and barrel both feature a central band made from ivory-colored resin, engraved with hieroglyphics and ancient images from the walls inside the burial chamber, using a scrimshaw technique, a complicated and time-consuming process. The engravings are filled with black ink, polished, and then hand-painted. Strips of blue, red, and green enamel are present throughout the pen, reminiscent of the pharaoh's necklace. A series of darker blue enameled stripes adorn the top of the pen cap, as featured on the Nemes cloth covering Tutankhamun’s crown, symbolizing the Pharaoh's power. A cobra is intricately carved into the bottom of the pen cap representing Tutankhamun's rule of Lower Egypt and adorns the headcloth of his burial mask. The design of the blind cap echoes Tutankhamun’s beard. All trims are plated in a luxurious brushed satin yellow-gold finish.

Each pen is packaged and displayed in an ornate reproduction of King Tutankhamun's sarcophagus. The pen sits inside on a bed of red flocked fabric and can be viewed through the window covering the top of the display. The sarcophagus sits on a pedestal made of olive wood engraved with the collection's name.
