The TIBALDI CLARI VIRI collection pays tribute to great historical figures such as Alexander the Great, Napoleon Bonaparte, Julius Caesar, Horatio Nelson and Peter the Great. Each pen features a portrait of the leader and his symbol on the cap, combining art and technology with exceptional craftsmanship. The instruments are designed with the Divine Proportion (Phi), a mathematical principle that appears in nature and ensures perfect aesthetics.

Since its founding in 1916, TIBALDI has stood out for the quality and design of its pens, which are highly valued by collectors. The Clari Viri collection is based on the design of the TIBALDI Divina, with international patents that certify its uniqueness and filling mechanism, which is operated like the crown of a luxury watch, preventing leakage. The nibs are made of solid 18-karat gold, with a flexibility that guarantees comfort when writing. The nibs also feature meticulous details, such as a carved clip and push mechanism for ease of use. The design of the pens is airbrushed, created with extreme precision by artist Lorena Straffi. Materials used include high quality resins, such as ivory and black for the Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar versions, and anti-stress acrylic for durability. The pens feature rose gold-plated sterling silver trim, and a Clou de Paris pattern, which harkens back to 18th century luxury watches. In addition, the collection is limited to 50 units per design, in both fountain pens and rollerballs.

Alexander the Great (356-323 BC) was an exceptional military leader, renowned for his strategic genius. After succeeding his father on the throne of Macedonia, he extended his empire to Persia, achieving victories in territories such as Asia Minor, Syria and Egypt, and becoming the Great King of Persia at the age of 25.
