OK, you've found me out. Yes; I have a tiny bit of an Omas obsession.
Drawer 6 is another drawer of Omas.
From left:
Omas 556/S Ogiva 1960 in silver grey marbled celluloid (the 556 is the middle size for this style). Omas Extra (facetted); Omas Extra paragon 1994 (this was a cheap buy on ebay as it had been left outside near a swimming pool (so blue celluloid fades to purple on cap and near base of barrel as well as tarnishing on clip and on gold around piston. - even so, great nib and great writer). Omas Milord (mid size pen) with F sticker still on barrel. Next a modern pen (2013): the Omas M-091 LE from Fountainpen.It (this pen has a fine, titanium nib with a little flex). Back to vintage again: a 1950s Extra 556/F (f is for facetted) in pearlised celluloid and with an Extra Lucens nib. Next one along: Omas 555/S (the smallest size) again in pearlised celluloid (although not quite as stunning as the 556). A Black Omas 556/S ogiva; and finally, one I know very little about; it's a black Omas I'm guessing is 196-+. It doesn't have the original nib but a ERC number 1. If you can help me with this one, I'd appreciate it.
Until next tine...
Hello.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the official name of purple color Omas pen?
Regards,
Thankyou for the question. In the caption above it's the third pen - only purple due to oxidisation :D
ReplyDeleteThank you for reply.
DeleteMaybe, is the original "Paragon Scarlet Red"?
No. I have that pen also; but this was a Paragon Blue.
