Aurora marks the fifth centenary of the birth of Andrea Palladio with a new line of pens dedicated to the famous architect in a limited and numbered edition.

The collection is made up of 1919 fountain pens with a piston refill mechanism and 18Kt. Gold nib and 999 roller ball pens, all featuring black lacquer finishes and pink gold-plated trims. The rings and clip are decorated with the architectural motifs typical of Palladio’s works. Finely engraved archways, vaults and staircases blend with the guilloche design on the cap, while the flash of gold and black lacquer finish meets the streamlined design of the barrel in a harmonious game of geometries and colors. The 99 fountain pens in solid pink gold with contrasting black trims, made even more precious by the pave of rubies, will please even the most exacting demanding experts.

The Aurora Palladio reflects the timeless elegance of classical balance right down to the packaging: each pen comes in the exclusive black presentation case with beige leatherette lining.

The new collection is a tribute to the artist’s creativity. It embodies a totally Italian similarity between functionality and beauty, bringing together the architectural style of Palladio’s villas with that of writing instruments and graphic symbols for which Aurora has been ambassador for almost a century.
