Pen: Omas Bibliotheque Nationale

Condition: B - no brassing or scratches. Very minor discoloration around section threads - see pics - extremely hard to notice. Piston works perfectly.

Description: Hard to let this one go, but it's not getting inked enough. Pen only, no box. Excellent crisp imprint and wide Greek key cap band. This pen is a fantastic writer.

This pen was "made in honor of the National Library of France, a comprehensive library dedicated to 'preserving the memory of the future'. Omas uses an ivory vegetal resin with gold trim to symbolize the parchment manuscripts and the ivory, gold pen holders designed in the 1920's."

Nib: 18k #5 Medium in-house Omas-made nib prior to Bock outsourcing. Very smooth with some nice line variation.

Price: SOLD
