Thanks very much for looking at our listing for this wonderful Omas Milord Arco Bronze Fountain Pen, which comes with its OMAS presentation box (including outer) and unstamped paperwork. The pen has been carefully used and is presented in lovely condition.
OMAS require no introduction and since their sad demise in January 2016, the hunger from fans and collectors for great examples of their writing instruments has increased dramatically! The company was founded by Armando Simoni and the full name was Officina Meccanica Armando Simoni, abbreviated to OMAS.
The Milord was part of the Arte Italiana collection and features a twelve-faceted design. Arco Bronze celluloid requires no introduction and is arguably the most sought-after pen material on the planet, alongside Arco Verde. With its myriad of brown and gold tones, it’s a material that simply has to be seen to be fully appreciated.
The pen is a piston filler, so your choice here is bottled ink. It’s fitted with an OMAS medium ‘Extra Flessible’ 14k nib which were renowned for their line variation – it’s important not to push these nibs too far, as they’re very soft!
The important details are as follows…
Condition: Lovely
Box: OMAS
Nib: Medium 14k Extra Flessible
With every pen that we sell we provide a card that includes the manufacturer, model, serial / limitation number and date it was purchased from us. We do this because our customers like to have documentation showing that it’s been purchased from a trusted seller. As the Financial Times said recently in their How To Spend It publication – “izods is an e-cache of ultra fine fountain pens”.
