AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A0000005946
Extraordinary and exclusive drawing 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, highlighting the use of vibrant materials of the highest quality. 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 in the characteristic "Auroloide" patented by Aurora, a celluloid resin that in this model presents a spectacular marbled pattern in different shades of navy blue. This vibrant finish contrasts wonderfully with the solid push-button, the nib/lead tip 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.
The pencil features a clutch-release mechanism operated by the upper push-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: Marbled blue Auroloide and gold-plated accents.
Loading system: Special drawing leads.
Measurements: 11 cm long x 1.6 cm diameter.
Any damage: In excellent condition for a collectible. The Auroloide maintains its shine and depth of color without cracks or scratches. The gold metals are impeccable, showing only very light signs of handling.
Case/Accessories: A luxury "Full Set" very difficult 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 colored lead refills for the sketch pen ("Aurora sketch pen coloured lead refills").
- Outer boxes and Mare collection brochure.
Please consult images to form an adequate impression.
