AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
OMAS Vintage Set from the 80s - Fountain Pen with gold nib and ballpoint pen - Red marbled lacquer (in vintage Aurora case, without cartridges)
Description:
This auction features a valuable and rare vintage writing set from the legendary Bologna-based OMAS manufactory, dating from the 1980s. The instrument bodies are crafted from beautiful, elegant red lacquer with a marbled texture (root/marble effect) and gold finishes. The clips on both pieces bear the characteristic OMAS logo set in a red square.
The set consists of two matched, fully complete structural elements:
OMAS Fountain Pen: equipped with a solid gold nib (based on the series specifications, gold 14k / fineness 585). The pen has the distinctive black, longitudinally ribbed section grip with a gold band. The cap closes with a secure snap (press-fit). The filling system accepts standard cartridges or converters (internal screw thread in perfect condition, pen sold without cartridge/converter).
OMAS Ballpoint Pen: equipped with a smoothly operating twist mechanism at the top. The pen retains the original internal guiding tube with a blue end, but it is sold without a writing insert (the core is empty, ready for a new refill).
Packaging and shipping:
The set does not include the original OMAS branded box. However, to ensure maximum safety during transport and elegant presentation, the items will be shipped in the visible photograph, original vintage Italian Aurora case from the era (70s/80s), which perfectly fits storing the instruments.
Aesthetic and mechanical condition:
Both items are in excellent visual condition for their age. The lacquer is glossy, smooth, with no cracks or chips. The gold-plated elements and clips maintain a beautiful, deep shine. All internal mechanisms and the cap closure are 100% functional. The included Aurora case is clean and fully functional.
This is a class premium item, ideal for discerning collectors of the OMAS brand and lovers of luxurious vintage objects.
Shipping:
A safe, well-protected shipment with full insurance and tracking available across Europe.
