Omas The Cinema Collection 1895-1995 |
|
|
 |
|
| 1895 is recongnized as the birth of Cinema and the Confederation Internationale des Cinemas d'Art & Essai selected OMAS to produce a fountain pen commemorating the '100 years of cinema' because of their reputation as the world's finest manufacturer of writing instruments. Since 1925 OMAS has been producing handmade writing instruments with the same precision and care that is reminiscent of the precision of a director making a film. | |
 |
|
| The result of this collaboration is a beautifully fashioned pearl grey celluloid symbolizing the first black and white movies. | |
 |
|
| Omas recognizes this medium not only for it's important technical and cultural impact but also for it's use of celluloid in producing the films of old. This is a remarkable material of vegetal origin from which the finest pens are made. | |
 |
 |
| This limited collection is of only 3,890 pieces with an 18K rolled gold band engraved with an image of the old cinema machine and reel. It has a piston-filling system with an 18K gold nib and a platinum inlaid mask. | |
 |
 |
Omas packages the pen in an aluminum box created to look like the "pizza", the cinema slang for the original film container. The cinema remains a valued and innovative means of communication. Known as the seventh art, the cinema is truly magical with its lastinG images and powerful impact. This pen comes with an single-tone 18K Medium nib. |
|
| We have acquired this LE pen pre-owned, MINT without its original box and papers numbered 1104/3890. This pen does come with a regular Omas box. | |
