Omas Paragon Arco Bronze Celluloid HT Trim Fountain Pen – Medium Cursive Italic

Thanks very much for looking at our listing for this Omas Paragon Arco Bronze Celluloid HT Trim Fountain Pen, which comes with an IZODS presentation box. The pen has been lightly used and is presented in overall excellent condition – the piston trim ring appears to have lost its rhodium plating, so is gold, or this could be a mismatch. The pen was previously supplied by the legendary Tom Westerich, so you can be sure that it’s a delightful example.

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.

This is the Arco Bronze celluloid version… with it being arguably the most sought-after pen material on the planet, alongside Arco Verde. With its myriad of amber, brown and gold tones, it’s a material that simply has to be seen to be fully appreciated. The arco pattern lines up exceptionally well.

The pen is fitted with an 18k medium nib, which was ground to a cursive italic by Tom Westerich. It’s a piston filler, so your choice here is bottled ink.

The important details are as follows…

Condition: Excellent

Box: IZODS

Nib: Medium Cursive Italic

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”.
