Condition and information:

By one of the best pen manufacturers in Italy, Aurora comes this beautiful fountain pen with very fine mid-century modernistic design. The pen is designed with nice guilloche lines along the length of the body and the cap which give the pen a nice texture. The pen is crafted in gold plated body accented with black trims, a special stylish accent is given to the top and the bottom of the pen with the black glossy resin inserts. The cap and the clip feature nice crisp engravings that read “Italy” and “Aurora”.

The pen features a snap-on cap with a very price opening and closing action. For better balance and feel in the hand, the cap can be posted which will also give the pen a longer length and weight. The pen can be used either with cartridges or with a converter if the user wants to fill the pen from a ink bottle. 

This fountain pen is fitted with a clear face, stainless steel, M size nib with an iridium tip which provides resistance to abrasion which also makes the nib super smooth on the paper. The nib feels somewhat soft, and semi flexible as opposed to some steel nibs which can feel stiff.
The pen will provide you with the perfect writing experience as it simply glides on any paper. It has a good grip, balance and feel in the hand. Best of all, the pen is super easy to maintain, clean, and use with either cartridges or a converter.

The pen is in mint condition with minimal to no signs of use, no gold wear off and no personal engravings.
