Impossible to choose just one....so, here's a bunch......Unfortunately, some are no longer in my pen stable.... :blush:

 

OMAS Mueller Burl wood celluloid....

Montegrappa Extra 1930

All of these pens are on my list of wants. I really want the red striped Duofold because I have the DuoVac in this red stripe. I hope that when I get the money these Duofolds are still around to buy. I love the Omas. I really want a Milord piston.

Most beautiful pen ?

Really impossible to say, there are so many stunning pens out there, some are simply works of art.

Still I do have one pen I want to mention not just because its so gorgeous but also because it means so much to me.

 

For a long time I was dreaming of the Visconti Jewish Bible and after I mentioned in some post how much I like and dream of this pen I found it waiting for me in the mail.

I mean if this is not the ultimate gift, most spiritual act of generosity then I dont know what is.

So this gorgeous pen is with me and I never stop to be amazed of all the tiny details put in this pen.

This is one pen I will never part with!!! :cloud9: both because of its beauty and because of a good friend with a kind and generous heart.

Now if only someone would send me a Visconti Homo Sapiens! (if you're out there, Pen Santa, Christmas is coming up... :roflmho:)

 

You got a wonderful pen! I'm now eternally envious :thumbup:

and the Aurora Optima Auroloide Blue

I have an Aurora Optima Auroloide Green on the way and if it was here I would add it too. Italian craftsmen rock! :thumbup:

Waterman 42 red ripple with checkered gold plating. Oh my god, I fell in love with that pen, so crushed I lost by $20 on the bay to a 5 second sniper.

 

Hope another comes up.

Nakaya Decapod Twist in Heki-Tamenuri. I want one with the tadpole converter.

 

The Nakaya Chinkoku Shinobu in Black. I want it as a Long Cigar with a rhodium nib.

 

Pelikan Souverän M450 in green tortoise with vermeille furnishings. Customized with a needlepoint nib, this is my dream pen.

 

The Pelikan Souverän White Tortoise is quite lovely as well. I'm hoping it comes out as an M800.

When I saw this pen my jaw literally DROPPED! :notworthy1:

I don't know...there are lots of beautiful pens out there. I find myself occasionally drawn to a Pelikan M405 or M605 with blue stripes for a bit of bling, and I like Nakaya's Piccolo in Aka-Tamenuri for classic Japanese style. The Aurora 88 demonstrator is pretty slick, and I think there are quite a lot more than I can mention in a short post. I don't own any of them, and don't really want to own them for various reasons, but can admit they are beautiful.

 

I don't think I have any pens that I would describe as really really beautiful. This one is getting a lot of pocket time because I like the way it looks though:

I have always wanted this one as it reminded me of a Vatican trip I took back in 1987. But couldn't afford it at the time:

I like the simple elegance of MB Silver Barley. The MOP, sterling silver and a diamond in one package. I like sterling silver fountain pens.

Pelikan Green O' Green or Blue O' Blue, which are also elegant looking pens in a simply form.

Also, an Aurora limited edition, Europa.

I am obsessed with the Raden vanishing point, especially since they've brought out those new models...

And the Edison Silver Marble Acrylic pattern (which is what pushed me to buy this pen as soon as I saw it)

Oh, my gosh, these pens are all so lovely! Thanks for the eye candy.

 

I'm obssessed with this one, presently (though it's completely out of my range):

 

Nakaya Ascending Dragon

Wow! Some awesome beauties in this thread, I'm glad it was bumped up.

 

Tough call which is the "most beautiful pen" in my collection, but today I will go with the Pilot/Namiki chinkin owl.

Namiki Nightline. I don't have it, but it is stunning.

 

A truly gorgeous pen. I could easily have chosen this over the Owl as my "most beautiful".

Platinum 3776 Chartres blue

 

That blue is so beautiful I want to get one but the gold trim is so retro. Do they use rose gold for that piece?

Well there was a custom Ariel Kullock pen using an old Perry & Co nib I saw a couple of months ago that I stupidly passed, that was literally the most beautiful thing i'd ever seen :( otherwise I aim to get the Nakaya Decapod next in Heki-Tamenuri yummy colours.
