Venetian Dream is the latest evolution of the Looking East collection, reinterpreting its iconic form through a vision inspired by the architecture and history of Venice.
The design draws its roots from Venetian palaces, expressions of a city that for centuries has stood as a crossroads between East and West. Flamboyant Gothic architecture, with its pointed arches, geometric motifs, and rich decorative language, becomes both aesthetic and narrative reference, translated into a refined and meaningful formal expression.
The silver filigree, inspired by the ornamental details of Venetian façades, envelops an inner iridescent red resin. A deep, vibrant hue that recalls the velvets of Venetian palaces— precious surfaces that transform under changing light.
The contrast between metal and color creates an intense dialogue of materials, enhancing the perception of depth and lending the pen a rich, warm, and luminous elegance.
The finial engraved with the Lion of Saint Mark is not merely a decorative element, but a mark of authority and belonging. Emblem of the Serenissima—the ancient Republic of Venice, a maritime and commercial power for centuries—the winged lion evokes strength, protection, and dominion over the sea, reflecting Venice’s enduring role as a city of exchange, power, and culture.
A tribute to Venice as a meeting point of worlds and traditions, Venetian Dream expresses a vision of luxury that unites culture, craftsmanship, and stylistic research, in a spirit of continuity and evolution.
Produced in a limited edition of 388 pieces, available as fountain pen and rollerball, Venetian Dream is conceived for collectors and connoisseurs who recognize writing as a gesture of value and identity.
“Venice is the most beautiful city ever built by men, not to live in, but to dream.”
— Gabriele D’Annunzio
