UnibodyT M Lady White

This pen in made from a pen blank of Omas. Omas was an italian manufacturer of fountain pens founded in 1925 but unfortunately finally closed in 2016.

It has been a pleasure work with this material. I was really scare to messed up, but I think I got something interesting.



It is an UnibodyT M because it visually looks like a single body. There are no steps between the cap and the body. The T is because they do not have width uniformity along their entire length
