Offered for sale is a Custom Limited Edition #1/1 crafted from Omas Saffron by Italian artisan penmaker Ferrucio Furri. The pen is a recently made (2019) modern interpretation using vintage Omas Saffron rod stock, a huge vintage 14K gold nib, and a button filling system equipped with a new sac.
This terrific pen is a big 'un, measuring approximately 153 mm long capped and 140 mm long uncapped. Barrel diameter is a comfortable 13.5 mm. Comparative pictures next to a King of Pen Pro Gear and a Pelikan M1000 are posted below. The huge nib bears the engraving:
"Warranted
14 Carat
1st Quality"
and bears the Furri signature . It writes smoothly in what appears to me to be a Fine to Medium line as shown in the writing sample also posted. The pen barrel bears the engraving:
Furri (in cursive)
Handmade in Italy
Edizione Unica 2019
The pen is supplied in a custom made wood box with lovely birdseye grain and the wonderful smell of cedar. The box also contains some turnings from the manufacture of the pen and is signed with the maker's signature "Furri".
