Omas - three modern commissioned pens and one vintage

[eric47]

A bit of cross-posting to help stimulate the International section.

Here's a photo of three modern commissioned pens that recall the old pre-Ogiva round shape of the original lever-filler Extra, Lucens, and post-war Extra piston filler; photo includes an pearl gray example of the latter, i.e. an Extra piston filler. There are some "standard production" pens with this shape and design, but usually in rather small quantities, e.g. Arco Brown, Arco Green, Spine di Pesce, and Burkina sets.



From top to bottom:

• Omas A.C. Vecchietti (Bologna, Italy) 80th Anniversary (2008), 80 pens
• Omas Musso Stilografiche (Torino, Italy) 75th Anniversario (2007), 75 pens
• Omas Fahrney's Pens (Washington D.C., USA) Campidoglio (Pen Fair 2006), 200 fountain pens
• Omas Extra Oversize, vintage post-war piston filler. Photos by Riccardo Murrau

The links are for the specific threads in the Italian section where there are more photos of each pen.

Thanks everyone!

At times, I think round pens show off the pure beauty of the celluloid better than the faceted pens. But if the celluloid isn't so special or the pen is black, then something else is needed to make the pen interesting, e.g. the shape (faceted pen) or the furniture (cap rings, clip, etc.).

Riccardo, I forgot to try to close the cap of the Extra to get the "Omas Extra" engraving to align better with the cap. I did it for all 3 modern pens, but I forgot the Extra.
