AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Aurora Marco Polo Vermeil: 925 silver, gold-plated with original box, in conditions virtually as good as new.
Elegant Aurora Marco Polo fountain pen, a refined expression of vintage Italian production from the historic Turin-based maker. The body and cap are made of 925 silver with a vermeil finish, confirmed also by the original inscription AURORA argento 925‰ dorato present inside the case.
The pen stands out for its splendid longitudinal guilloché work that runs along the body and cap, enhancing the brightness of the gilding. The slim, streamlined profile is completed by the gold-plated clip, the distinctive double dark rings on the cap, and the glossy black grip section, which creates an elegant contrast with the precious metal. The gold nib completes a classic and particularly harmonious composition.
The specimen presents in excellent condition and is accompanied by its charming original Aurora box, an element that further enhances the lot. A fountain pen of great elegance, particularly interesting for Aurora collectors and enthusiasts of Italian writing instruments in precious metals.
Tracked shipping and careful packaging; low-cost couriers will not be used.
