New brand on Pen Venture - AURORA

[@michaelmelen9062]

Congratulations on your collaboration! I own two Aurora pens: Afrika and 100th Anniversary Cento (extra fine and fine nibs respectively), and recently ordered the Ambienti Tropici as a gift (fine nib). Both the Afrika and 100th Anniversary are delightful to write with. It is a quality company.

Thanks for sharing! Aurora makes some of the most elegant pens - i love them so much , they are delicate and very very complex while keeping a good quality standard :D

Wow Emy! Congratulations! I absolutely fell for the Aurora Optima, burgundy model, with silver trim. It has such a gorgeous deep red. Hope you can carry that model. Btw Aurora, is where I first discovered, the material, Celluloid Acetate 😆 and also where I first start to notice Italian pen manufacturers.

[@pen.venture]

Thank you so much!! We will from now try to add more and more of these pens to our inventory and we will have them soon in a much more expanded collection. Yes ... some aurora pens are made in celluloid acetate that is maybe a touch less known as the celluloid nitrate but it is still celluloid, it was used in the final years of celluloid this form.

I love Aurora! Their nibs have been a little stiff for me, but I love that they make them in house. I think the 88 black demonstrator is especially cool.

Hey Nick - thanks 🙏🏻 I love them too , mostly their finer points that I think are fantastic for my writing style 😁

[@scotkleinman]

Nice pens. Congrats on the new addition!

[@pen.venture]

They are! I cant wait to see what this new year brings on my review table :D

[@smart4141]

Congratulations Emy. Aurora makes great pens. They have a great history and I own 3 Aurora pens : Two Large 88 and one Optima Aurolide. The best thing about the brand is that they have been always making their own nibs. Only thing I don't understand is why don't they make oversized pens like the Leonardo MZ Grande. I wish to see one pen of that size from Aurora.

[@pen.venture]

Thank you K - o think their style is more authentic and true to the golden era of the fountain pen that is about a medium to small size and very elegant 🤌🏻 nevertheless they do some awesome pens

[@smart4141]

@@pen.venture completely agree. But don’t you feel they should come out with an over sized pen 🖊?

[@pen.venture]

maybe it will come this year :D

[@sajjadhusain4146]

I really like oversized pens a lot. Not everybody does them well enough, though. But you’re right, an oversized new Aurora this year or whenever, would be something I’d welcome whole-heartedly. And because it’s Aurora, that they’d make it awesome is almost guaranteed. Aurora dominates my collection 30/80 pens, as of today. This includes ten 88s. 🙂

[@ryanu5629]

I think if they just scaled the 88 up to have a number 8, it would be the perfect everyday writing pen...

[@pen.venture]

hmmm i bet it would look so nice - close in shape and size to the 149 from MB

[@ryanu5629]

@@pen.venture Yes! But in fun colors!

[@sajjadhusain4146]

I absolutely adore Aurora. To see you finally bring in Aurora pens into your inventory is such sweet news. I wish you heaps of luck this year and hope you can bring many of their other outstanding models, whatever the price. I now have 30 Aurora pens, both vintage and modern. I have a majority of their different models. Also, I have all their nib sizes except the EF. Aurora’s nibs - along with Sailor’s - are my clear two favorites in nibs by any pen manufacturer. I’m mainly a broad, italic, stub nib fan, but I like and enjoy all the Aurora nibs. Unique and incomparable. However, I have to single out Aurora’s italic nib as a uniquely impressive in-house grind. The 1.2 mm on two of my four Ipsilon pens and the out-of-factory Italic nibs on two of my ten 88s, and also on my jade Internazionale pens are the truest, crispest, loveliest italics I own. And I will recommend the fantastic Goccia nib to anybody, in a heartbeat. Vintage Aurora is another amazing world.

[@pen.venture]

Thank you so much for your feedback :D i cant wait to dive into them and to review some for our audience - they look nice and have some really nice nibs , i personally like the EF F nibs and the Goccia, i have a Goccia nib on my Oceani collection - Indian and i cant wait to show how it writes. In the future for your next aurora :D choose us

[@sajjadhusain4146]

@@pen.venture …The Goccia is not exactly, but kind of similar to the Sailor Zoom nib. It costs quite a bit extra to order the nib with your pen. I’ve found it to be totally worth the cost. Because it is such a fabulously fun nib to write with. And I was thinking exactly the same thing, i.e. next time I buy an Aurora, I will make sure I buy from you. 👍

[@Cortesevasive]

which goccia is the best ce cf cm ? , do ce has finer line or just less variation?@@sajjadhusain4146

Santini !! Santini !!

I think I should get back with an email now that you pointed it out 😁

[@thomask6846]

You should test a BB nib from Aurora. Their BB nib is quite unique. It's more like a BBB italic and has nothing to do with a usual round BB. I know you don't like broad nibs. But maybe your customers do. :)

[@pen.venture]

The B nib I tryed but the BB not, I think I’ll try one soon. It’s not about my taste, I can still appreciate a nib even if it’s not for my daily use 😁 you got me curious now to try it

[@thomask6846]

​@@pen.venture If you want I can send you one of my BB nibs for testing.
