Fountain pens are extensions of passion. Tools to transfer one’s deepest thoughts and emotions to paper. The soul of any fountain pen is the nib, the only part of the tool to actually make contact with the writing surface, thus shaping the entire experience of using a pen. This paramountcy of the nib has always been at the core of OMAS’s design and way of thinking.

These people who ascend to the top of their craft are awarded the title “Nibmeister”. A title which is earned, not given.
We want to celebrate these people, and their passion for the craft. That’s why we’ve started our new Calligrafia collection. We seek to honor the creations of these Nibmeisters by offering them a home worthy of their craftsmanship.

The visibly modified nib has been handcrafted to represent its creator’s passion with every stroke.
Paragon
The Paragon Calligrafia seeks to truly live up to the name “Paragon”, a model of excellence.
Made out of a red rippled ebonite as an homage to the famous material of the past, the Calligrafia is our first Paragon ever to be made out of the vaunted substance. Most importantly however, each Paragon Calligrafia is crowned with a truly special nib. The nibs in question are “Double Stacked” nibs. Created by TAKU-san through a process of carefully
