AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Omas Arte Italiana 557-F Fountain Pen.
Presented in 1984, the Arte Italiana collection revisits the legendary celluloid models of the thirties in an innovative material for the time: “cotton resin.”
In 1997 the clip with the wheel was reintroduced and, subsequently, when ownership passed to the French, a substantial restyling was carried out.
Arte Italiana is the collection that most characterized and made Omas recognizable as a producer of high‑quality writing objects.
Characterized by the mythical twelve facets of the reservoir and the cap, the clip, with a diamond cut and later with the wheel, the two verette, one on the cap and the other on the reservoir,
Arte Italiana is a true icon.
The pen in question is the fountain pen 557-F, the largest and most representative one, dating to the late 1980s, with gold finishes, piston filling, and nib in 14 kt gold.
The pen has been used; it shows ink marks on the nib and some marks highlighted in the images.
As with all Omas pens, since the Mother Company no longer exists, these should be considered antique pens with no OFFICIAL ASSISTANCE or WARRANTY, although an official warranty and the packaging exist, with signs of wear and stains on the lower part.
