Why Choose an Olivetti Typewriter

Award-Winning Design and Timeless Aesthetics

Olivetti typewriters stand out not only for their technical excellence but also for their unmistakable design.
Models like the Lettera 22 or the Valentine, designed by Ettore Sottsass, received international recognition in industrial design.
Their clean lines, elegant shapes, and avant-garde colors have made them true design icons admired by collectors and creatives alike.

Precision Mechanics and Proven Reliability

Built under the strict standards of Italian engineering, Olivetti machines deliver smooth performance, accurate keystrokes, and impressive durability.
Even decades later, many still work perfectly after a simple tune-up — a testament to their outstanding craftsmanship.

Availability of Parts and Ink Ribbons

Whether for repairs or full restoration, keeping them in top condition is straightforward and affordable.

Its legacy in design and innovation makes it one of the most prized brands among collectors, with models that embody the creative spirit of the 20th century.

What should I check before buying a restored Olivetti?
