Aurora has been producing its signature luxury fountain pen for a century now. Combining a rich heritage and artisan skill with forward-thinking design and technology, the brand creates pieces that are a dream for writing enthusiasts. They manufacture their own nibs, and every pen is turned, polished, assembled, and tested by hand. This attention to detail ensures a superior quality result; put an Aurora fountain pen to paper and your notes will be noticed.

This is a high capacity piston-fill pen. With an extra twist of the piston knob when near empty, a small extra reserve is released which allows writing to continue until a convenient time to refill.

Nib Material: 14K Gold
