Notes

In 1997, OMAS launched a limited edition fountain pen to honour the life of Buddha, a philosopher whose timeless teachings of universal compassion resonate profoundly with millions across diverse nationalities, social class, and faith. The pen’s design is a masterful essence of Buddhist principles, with “Triratna” alluding to the “Three Jewel” of Buddhism: The Buddha, the Dharma (teachings), and the Sangha (community). The use of yellow-orange resin symbolises the robes of the Buddhist monks.
