Montegrappa Genio Creativo Salvador Dali Space Elephant Limited Edition
After a four year break from the Genio Creativo limited edition range, Montegrappa added a new pen to the range, the Salvador Dali Space Elephant Limited Edition.
First there was Visconti Dali Dance of Time I Limited Edition, now Montegrappa launched another Limited Edition using another piece of Salvador Dali work as theme. Is this a coincident or what?

OMAS Extra Lucens Limited Edition 2013
The first OMAS Extra Lucens was created by Armando Simoni back in 1936. Omas created yet another beautiful and elegant Extra Lucens fountain pen this year using black/yellow celluloid materials.
As you might have noticed, the fashion colour for this reason is yellow. If you check out a few of the big fashion luxury brands, you will notice that they launched their new design in yellow. This beautiful Omas Extra Lucens Limited Editions align with the latest fashion.
