Description from the seller
A0000005946
Extraordinary and exclusive sketch pencil (Sketch Pen) from the historic Italian manufacture Aurora, part of its famous and sought-after Mare collection. This line was conceived as a tribute to the beauty of the Italian seas, notable for its use of vibrant materials of the highest quality. It is a numbered edition; this piece 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 resin that in this model presents a spectacular marbled pattern in different shades of dark blue. This vibrant finish contrasts wonderfully with the solid plunger button, the nib, and the central ring, all generously gold-plated. The central ring is finely engraved with the name "Aurora" on one side and its serial number on the opposite side.
The pencil features a clutch-fall mechanism operated by the top button, ideal for releasing and adjusting the length of the thick drawing leads with total precision, offering an unrivaled sketching experience.
Technical details of the piece:
Type of item: Sketch pencil / thick lead holder.
Model/Collection: Aurora Mare (Numbered Edition).
Materials: Marbled blue Auroloide and gold-plated fittings.
Loading system: Special drawing leads.
Measurements: 11 cm long x 1.6 cm in diameter.
Any damage: In excellent collectible condition. The Auroloide maintains its shine and depth of color without cracks or scratches. The gold metals are flawless, showing only very slight handling marks.
Case/Accessories: A luxury "Full Set" very hard to find complete. Includes:
- Heavy desk base (inkstand/support) gold-plated to display the pencil.
- Elegant original protective sheath in fine black calf leather ("Fine Calf Leather").
- Original case with colored refill leads for the Aurora sketch pen ("Aurora sketch pen coloured lead refills").
- Outer boxes and Mare collection brochure.
Please refer to the images to form an appropriate impression.
