AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

We present at auction a writing instrument with a fresh, unmistakable design signed by Aurora: the Kappa fountain pen model. This model represents a perfect union between historic Italian craft tradition and a modern aesthetic, ideal for those seeking a reliable, dynamic instrument with great character.

The pen body is made of premium resin in a vivid and deep shade of red, in splendid contrast with the cap in metal with a satin silver finish. The cap is crowned by a glossy clip with a linear profile, bearing the Aurora brand engraving on the side, and topped by a flat head that chromatically echoes the red of the barrel, creating a perfect visual balance.

In line with our usual and stringent policy of total transparency, we note the presence of a personalized engraving on the metal cap, elegantly placed beside the clip, showing the name "Ishak" in italic lettering (clearly documented and highlighted in the enlarged photo taken in the gallery).

The heart of the fountain pen is the solid, reliable steel nib typical of Aurora manufacture, designed to offer a smooth and precise writing experience. The filling system is the practical and traditional cartridge format. The photos confirm the perfect integrity of the nib block and the feed.

Net of the described engraving, the conservation state of the specimen is to be considered in excellent overall condition. The resin and the metal are in excellent condition, showing only microscopic and normal superficial signs due to careful handling, which in no way compromise the beauty or functionality of the pen.

To further enhance and impeccably complete this lot, the fountain pen is offered with its precious accessories, including the elegant original Aurora presentation box and the original documentation/warranty from its era. An ideal opportunity to adorn your desk with a timeless, colorful classic of Italian design."
