Conway Stewart Model 58


The new release of the Model 58 is Conway Stewart's homage to one of the company's classic models, a pen revered in it's original form by vintage pen collectors for the wide range of vibrant materials and variations. Serving as one of Conway Stewart's flagship models throughout the golden age of fountain pens, the Model 58 is brought to new life in a selection of exciting colours inspired in part by the materials from the 1930s.
Available in five colours, the new Model 58 also pays tribute to classic designs of yesteryear in the choice of filling mechanisms, being available as a traditional lever filler in addition to the simple modern cartridge converter mechanism.

The Model 58 fountain pen version is fitted with Conway Stewart's large solid 18 carat gold nib, available in a choice of eight grades from Extra Fine through Extra Broad, Italic Fine, Italic Medium and Italic Broad, allowing the new Model 58 to reflect the personal handwriting style of a wide range of writers.

fast cars and beautiful pens!

 
Tradition and modernity live together in the Certified Edition “Automobili Lamborghini by Omas”, dedicated to the famous luxury car brand Automobili Lamborghini.

Tradition thanks to a particular shape that distinguished Omas in the writing instrument world, the famous model 360 with triangular section that, according to the ergonomic principles, allows a perfect handling and enhances the “pleasure of writing”.

A strong modernity character thanks to the precision mechanics stressed by an innovative bayonet closing system, that allows an even simpler and more reliable use of the writing instrument over time.

Automobili Lamborghini represents the synthesis of Italian luxury thanks to its production of the most famous super sport cars in the world. It does not only mean four-wheeled luxury: Lamborghini embraces with pleasure the brand extension philosophy and the union with Omas is one of its most exclusive realizations.

Sailor Kabazaiku

Kabazaiku - Cherry-bark woodworking art work is a traditional Japanese art work which flourished in Kakunodate in Akita prefecture of Japan. The technique was used 250 years ago by Samurai warriors to decorate their weapons etc. The same uncompromising spirit of quality and workmanship has been handed down the generations to the producer of the 'Kabazaiku' Cherry Bark - Denshiro Shouten. Each pen shows a unique pattern of wild Cherry bark and gives a warm natural feeling in the hands.
