    Default MIXED MODERN - RECIFE, PILOT, OMAS, TACCIA, GAMA, DIP PENS

    Prices include shipping CONUS first class with tracking number. International orders ship or other methods will be additional. I entertain all reasonable offers and love package deals. Please contact me with any questions.





    1) Taccia Andante Piston Filler. Somewhat hard to find these days, not sure when Taccia was making these, but an interesting pen. Its a piston filler, with blue-yellow acrylic thats similar to the Tibaldi celluloid. Fine steel nib. Cool and unusual. $80.

    2) Recife. Not sure of the model, but a big pen in a burgundy/reddish swirl. Bought it used, cleaned it, used it for maybe one converter fill, but could not make it a mainstay in the rotation because the nib is a fine. Has a nick at the base of the barrel. SOLD





    3) and 4) Gama Airborne. These are Indian ebonite eyedroppers made by the company Gama to mimic the Eversharp Skyline. I love Indian eyedroppers, but these are too slender for me. The one source I know of for these pens has sold out for a long time. BOTH SOLD

    5) Pilot Vortex. Kind of a futuristic little pen, medium Japanese steel nib, I guess at one time this would have been called a school pen. $20.



    The pens in the above photo are list left to right, or smallest to biggest. I bought these from someone on FPN, whose name and website I no longer remember. These are large nib holders, hand-turned, out of exotic woods. Since I don’t recall the woods, I have given them descriptors with the prices as follows:

    6) Dark and Red $30
    7) Light With a Little Dark $30
    8) Black with inlay $35
    Or all three for ALL SOLD





    9) Cross Verve Platinum. I really love this pen, and am hesitant sell but alas I have not used it in a few years. Has a large integrated nib, I believe medium to broad width, nice weight, and metal body with a matte texture. It has some water droplet marks that I have been unable to polish off but are not that noticeable. I constantly consider keeping this pen. Cross Converter is included. $125

    10) Omas Ogiva Black Ballpoint. New old stock and unused, comes with box and leather sleeve. $125

    11) Pilot Custom 91 Yama Budo Medium Nib. Pilot came out with several Custom 91 pens to match the Iroshizuku colors. This is the pinkish pen shown above. New, unused, with box and all enclosures, 14K nib. SOLD

    12) Pilot Custom 91 Yama Guri Fine Nib. Same as above, but this is the brown pen and has a fine nib. New, unused, with box and all enclosures, 14K nib. $80.

    My best guess was "Amber Press Master Red", and this was confirmed to me by Récife customer service. They said it was approximately 20 years old.

    It works well and I quite like it; thank you for selling it to me.

    They typically ship with the Con-50, but are large enough to hold the con-70. (Don't know what the OP includes, just throwing it out there since the OP hasn't responded yet).
