Description from the seller
Aurora 98, Vintage from the 1960s with a gold cap featuring fine longitudinal guilloché and a 14-karat gold nib
Elegant Aurora 98 fountain pen, a refined expression of Italian craftsmanship from the 1960s. A model with a timeless design, characterized by a slender, harmonious line that perfectly blends sobriety, elegance, and tradition.
The glossy black resin body creates a splendid contrast with the gold-plated metal cap, enriched by a very fine longitudinal guilloché pattern. The distinctive clip with a dark insert completes a layout of great personality, immediately recognizable as Aurora’s style from that era.
The semi-hooded nib, elegantly integrated into the black section, gives the pen a particularly refined profile. Cartridge filling combines the charm of classic fountain writing with practical ease of use.
Presented in overall excellent condition, this Aurora 98 represents a splendid opportunity to enrich a collection of vintage Italian writing instruments or to rediscover the pleasure of writing with a pen of authentic charm.
Excellent condition for its era, with a small spot on the back of the cap that testifies to the vintage appeal, a 60-year anniversary of the object.
Tracked shipping and careful packaging; low-cost couriers will not be used.
