Antique materials and meticulous craftsmanship. Reminiscent of the elegance and sobriety of the historic pen of the Thirties – an authentic legend in its time – the current Optima maintains its unique line and all its charm to become, once again, a cult object for those pen enthusiasts who want only the finest.
The Auroloide version of the Optima range has been created using antique materials and features hand-finished trims and great attention down to the smallest detail.
The Blue cap and barrel are made of marbled Auroloide, an antique material, refined and prestigious. Marbled Auroloide is adorned with gold-plated trims. The O’ Sole Mio sports an all black cap turned from deep dark resin acrylic.
The fountain pen has a solid 14k gold nib and the traditional piston refill mechanism featuring a hidden large capacity ink reservoir. The ink feed is hand turned ebonite. There is a small clear ‘window’ to monitor ink remaining. The nib and feed are easily removed for thorough cleaning.
The Optima Blue Auroloide and O’ Sole Mio arrive in a stylish velvet presentation case.
