Description

Thanks very much for looking at our listing for this Omas Paragon Burlwood Celluloid Fountain Pen, which comes with an OMAS presentation box (the top has been repaired)and information booklet. The pen has been carefully used and is presented in overall excellent condition. Only 60 were produced and this is number 29.

 

 

 

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.

 

 

 

Released in 2012, the Burlwood pens were available as a limited edition of 60 pens in each of the following trim finishes – ruthenium, HT, rose gold and yellow gold. This is the HT version.

 

 

 

 

Burlwood celluloid requires no introduction and is arguably one of the most sought-after pen materials on the planet. With its fascinating brown, amber and black tones, it’s a material that has to be seen to be fully appreciated.

 

 

 

The pen is fitted with a 18k medium nib and it’s a piston filler, so your choice here is bottled ink.

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”.
