Aurora pens were first conceived in the year 1919, shortly after the signing of the treaty of Versailles. In Italy, a wealthy textile merchant sought to create a symbol of refinement for a country that was in the process of recovering after years of war ravaged the nation. Aurora was a result of the merchants efforts, which would also become known as the original Italian fountain pen. As Italy rebuilt, Aurora was there to lead the way as a company that was a bright example of success following dark times.

Aurora fountain pens are held in high regard when discussing writing implements that have exquisite taste. Known for their quality materials, styles such as the Aurora Ipsilon Resin pen, have made their way into the hands of many collectors and the expert craftsmanship of the Aurora Ipsilon Lacquer pens has caught the eye of pen aficionados around the world. The durability of Aurora, both as a company and as a brand of fine writing tools, demonstrates the type of prestige that one also carries when using these pens.
