Omas Pens: Handcrafted since 1925
Even when latest generation technology is used, such as during the processing of titanium, a human touch is still required. The numerous delicate operations involved in the production process mean that all OMAS pens are handmade. More than 100 stages are required for each design, from initial cutting of the 18 carat gold leaf to rolling, blanking and bending to give the nib maximum elasticity. A total of seven operations are needed to create the ebonite and vulcanised rubber conduit used to regulate the flow of ink.
The 12 sides on the celluloid models are shaped individually and then polished by hand using cork, a technique requiring two years of training. The solution adopted by OMAS during each manufacturing stage is always one where the highest quality is paramount. Approximately 100 working days are required to produce a celluloid pen. Each individual item is the result of attention to the tiniest detail. Specifically the clip on each model is unique. The highly specialized workforce needed means that each pen is a goldsmith’s masterpiece.
For this reason OMAS special editions, designed to celebrate exclusive events in conjunction with famous international partners, and OMAS limited editions aimed at fountain pen enthusiasts, are highly appreciated. These exclusive, limited edition and numbered models commemorate significant historical and cultural events and are highly prized thanks to the elegance of their design.
