OMAS Celluloid Bronze Arco (2005) |
| |
| The
Bronze Arco gold trim Fountain pen |
 |
| This oversized pen, featured here in
the Bronze Arco with gold trim , shows the material as it has never been seen
before. Shades of bronze and gold radiate from beneath the hand laid resin. The
grainy detail and uneven pattern of the celluloid make this pen seem as if it
were precisely carved from a piece of fresh wood. |
|
Given the size of this fountain
pen, OMAS employed twice as much of the celluloid as on the original Bronze Arco.
The outcome is a simply stunning pen.
The heaviest part of the pen is
in the vermeil gripping section, which make this a nicely balanced pen.
All
that remains of the old clip design is the roller ball, however, this ball is
more than twice the diameter of the old one. Employing
the same redesigned piston filling system as the resin 2005 Paragon, this pen
has the largest capacity of any of the piston fillers that we sell. It holds a
whopping 2.6 ml. of ink, compared with 2.2 ml. in the biggest Pelikan:
the M1000.

"A little testimonial
for you ... Dear Pat & Company: My Omas Paragon fountain pen from Omas'
"Arte Italiana Collection" in the Arco (bronze celluloid) and High-Tech
(silver) finish arrived today. I'm thrilled. I can't recall ever buying something
quite so pricey sight unseen (other than in a single good quality magazine image)
-- but Omas didn't let me down. Images on the Internet don't begin to do this
pen justice (at all), and though usually I prefer tortoise shell-like finishes
to be accompanied by gold trim (my beloved Parker Premier pens and mechanical
pencil in the Chinese Laque finish come to mind), the High-Tech (silver) was the
right way to go here (and what a nice accompaniment to my Italian Persol sunglasses
in similar tortoise and silver finish -- they're like complimentary cousins [God
bless those lovely and stylish Italians]). Beyond the pen itself, I must say that
I was so VERY impressed with the service you all gave me there -- quite literally,
from start to finish. Not only was the pen discounted to a VERY attractive and
VERY competitive price (I shopped around in advance), but your knowledge and value-added
service were far and away beyond what I might even have hoped for. Rarely in today's
world are one's expectations met, let alone exceeded, but you've done just that;
and, as a result, I certainly know who I'm buying my next pen from. Thank you
one and all for your sharing of knowledge, professionalism, and for your exemplary
service. It's been an absolute pleasure, and a lovely beginning to what's sure
to be a long association between us. Robert Ruiz"

| The
Bronze Arco Ballpoint |
| |
We can also provide
the ball point pen by special order. (Classic Fountain Pens does not normally
supply ball point pens, but have decided to make an exception here). Measuring
142 mm or 5 9/16 inches, this is the ball point that is listed with the OMAS 2005
(above). In a stroke of clarity, OMAS has designed this pen to also accept the
Parker ball point and the Parker gel refill. This also means that the Schmidt
and Itoya refills work. These last two are preferred by many writers not only
for their two thicknesses of point and their quality, but also because of the
agreeable price. |
