AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This elegant, piston-filling OMAS Extra, made in Italy, is in very good overall condition, fully retaining its classic character and the craftsmanship that distinguishes the brand. The glossy black resin body has a uniform and well-maintained luster, with minor signs of wear consistent with its age, but no cracks or structural damage. The "OMAS EXTRA – MADE IN ITALY" engravings remain crisp and clearly defined.
The cap, also in black resin, remains solid and closes securely. The gold-tone center band features its iconic Greek Key pattern, showing slight wear consistent with age, but still maintaining excellent presence and visibility. The gold-tone clip is straight, sturdy, and functional, exhibiting normal surface wear.
The 14K (585) gold nib is in very good condition, with a clean shine and perfectly legible engravings. The ebonite feed retains its intact fins and appears neat and unobstructed. The piston filling system operates correctly, moving smoothly and without play, ensuring good ink capacity.
Overall, this piece represents a magnificent example of the OMAS tradition: a solid, aesthetically flawless and fully functional pen, ideal for both collectors and those looking for a classic everyday fountain pen with great personality.
It will be sent in a courtesy box for proper preservation.
Good auction!
