OMAS CELLULOID BRONZE ARCO
omasarcofp.JPG (34789 bytes)

We have a limited supply of large pens, including the Bronze Arco, seen here, as well as the Paragon, (please see our Paragon page).    

I have had this Omas Arco pen in service for over two years.  For this reason, some small amount of wear can be seen on this particular pen. It is my daily writer and not for sale. The ones we have for sale are Mint-in-the-box.


Even though there is some controversy about the origins of this design, I still feel that the Omas Arco is, for my taste, the most beautiful pen on the market today.  What I like about it is the honest use of materials, beautiful craftsmanship, great color and straight forward design.  No other pen out there compares with this elegant simplicity.

We have acquired one 1996 Bronze Arco with GFT!- SOLD OUT!
We do have nibs!
          

Note: Because we bought a quantity of spare parts from the past distributor of OMAS when they went out of business in 2000, we can service OMAS pens here in the USA. They do not have to be sent to Italy.

Here is a blowup of the Greek key design on the cap band as well as a good look at the laminated celluloid plastic.

This detail of the cap band and rollerball clip shows the quality of manufacturing, the fit and finish, and the richness of color.

Bronze Arco Testimonials:

Before the LA pen show I had an idea that I wanted an Arco, but wasn't quite sure. The one thing I was sure about, though, was that I would be going to your booth to check it out. I trust you guys. From John's
work, to Pat and Danielle's knowledge and attention to detail - awesome. The pictures I'd seen were certainly great... but holding it - that's what did it - the proportions, how it felt when I wrote.... wow... wonderfully subtle, and... wow. It was delivered yesterday (along with the 1911) - and I didn't remember it being so beautiful at the show. And the work John did on the italic nib was perfect, along with the extra flow he gave it so I can write with this wonderful, smooth, wet line and still get the line variation... wow. Thank you so much. I played with the 1911 quickly, and that's wonderful, too... but for now it's just me and my Arco playin' on the page.
Many, many thanks,

Pat and John,
T
he Bronze Arco just arrived, thank you very much for the prompt service. What a beautiful pen, conservatively stunning. But the best part is how it writes! You tuned it just perfectly for me, which is quite an accomplishment considering how little I knew about what I wanted. Please don't lose my specifics, since I plan to buy more OMAS pens from you. Wonderful pen, writes like a dream.
Sincerely,
Kent Kochheiser" (2/13/06)

"Dear Pat,
The Bronze Arco arrived this afternoon in all of its glory. The pen really does match up to all of the apparent hyperbole from you and John and your Arco customers. It is quite striking and elegant and, of course, writes so smoothly and just right for me after John’s masterful tuning. I continue to marvel at and greatly appreciate your friendly, rapid, high quality service.
Thanks very much again and Best Regards,
Dale Feist" (9/8/05)
