OMAS has been creating exceptional Italian writing instruments since its founding in Bologna by Armando Simoni. Known for its elegant designs and meticulous craftsmanship, the brand’s iconic Paragon has remained a defining expression of the OMAS aesthetic since its introduction in the 1930s.
The Paragon Permanio Limited Edition pairs the classic twelve-faceted Paragon silhouette with Pearl Grey Celluloid and refined 18K rolled gold trim. The design is completed by the signature OMAS Greek motif, a faceted clip inspired by Simoni’s original designs, and the brand’s traditional piston-fill system.
Produced in an edition of only 143 individually numbered pieces, this exceptional Paragon is fitted with a rare original OMAS Permanio nib from 1943. Developed by Simoni and protected by Patent 67849, Permanio was created for an exceptionally flexible writing experience. The Fine, extra-flexible nib measures approximately 0.5–0.6 mm, offering an expressive and distinctive line.
With its vintage nib, iconic OMAS silhouette, and Pearl Grey Celluloid finish, the Paragon Permanio is a collector-worthy expression of Italian writing heritage, available through OUSRI.
