The summer of 2012 will long be remembered for the Diamond Jubilee celebrations, The London Olympics and the Paralympics – three extraordinary events that have hit the headlines around the world
Now, as Onoto’s tribute to this memorable summer, here is the Onoto Diamond Jubilee pen. Issued in a limited edition of just 60, one for each year of The Queen’s reign, the Onoto Diamond Jubilee is the perfect way for you to celebrate those memorable events.
It features a sterling silver cap which has been engine-turned in the traditional way with a distinctive diamond-shaped engraved pattern that shimmers as you turn the pen in your hand. The tri-colour barrel is made by diffusion-bonding black, white and pearlescent silver-grey acrylic to complement the sterling silver cap.
The 23 carat gold-plated Onoto chevron clip and the gold-plated Onoto cipher on top of the cap just add to the royal ‘feel’ - while the 18 carat gold Onoto nib confirms its importance as a pen that will find a special place in many pen collections around the world.
Look closely at the reverse of the cap and you’ll see the hallmarks, including the Diamond Jubilee mark which is only issued by the Assay Office until October 2012. In the photo (right) you can pick out our sponsor mark (OPC), the purity mark (925), the Jubilee mark (Queen's head), the Birmingham Assay mark (anchor) and the sterling silver mark (lion rampant).
If we manage to get are mits on one, we'll give you a more in depth critique of one. Take a closer look at the Onoto Diamond Jubliee on the Write Here Pens Website.
