AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A0000005946
Extraordinary and exclusive sketch pencil (Sketch Pen) from the historic Italian manufacturer Aurora, belonging to its famous and sought-after Mare collection. This line was conceived as a tribute to the beauty of the Italian seas, notable for the use of vibrant, very high-quality materials. It is a numbered edition; this piece in particular bears the engraving No. 514 on its central ring.
The body, with a thick, ergonomic profile (1.6 cm in diameter), is made from the characteristic "Auroloide" patented by Aurora, a cellulose acetate resin that in this model presents a spectacular marbled pattern in different shades of navy blue. This vibrant finish harmonizes wonderfully with the solid push button, the tip, and the central ring, all generously gilded in gold. The central ring bears the fine engraving of the name "Aurora" on one side and its serial number on the opposite.
The pencil features a clutch-release mechanism operated by the upper button, ideal for releasing and adjusting the length of the thick drawing leads with total precision, offering an unparalleled sketching experience.
Technical details of the piece:
Type of item: Sketch Pencil / Thick mechanical pencil.
Model/Collection: Aurora Mare (Numbered Edition).
Materials: Blue marbleized Auroloide and gold-plated accents.
Loading system: Special drawing leads.
Measurements: 11 cm long x 1.6 cm diameter.
Any damage: In excellent collectible condition. The Auroloide retains its shine and depth of color without cracks or scratches. The gold metals are pristine, showing only very faint signs of handling.
Case/Accessories: A luxury "Full Set" set, very hard to find complete. Includes:
- Heavy desktop base (inkstand/support) gold-plated to display the pencil.
- Elegant original protective case in fine black calf leather ("Fine Calf Leather").
- Original case with replacement colored leads for the Aurora sketch pen ("Aurora sketch pen coloured lead refills").
- External boxes and Mare collection brochure.
Consult images to form an appropriate impression.
