The Aurora 888 Ortigia Limited Edition Fountain Pen brings the storied 88 silhouette to a contemporary limited release, finished in a refined blue that feels at once understated and distinctive. Built in Italy with Aurora's renowned in-house nib making and a reliable piston-fill system, it offers a compelling balance of everyday utility and collector appeal.

Craftsmanship & Design

Aurora's 88 design is celebrated for its clean geometry and poised proportions, and the Ortigia edition preserves that timeless language in a richly hued blue. The form is streamlined for balance in hand, with thoughtful detailing and a finish that complements the pen's purposeful character rather than distracting from it. Subtle, well-judged touches give the Ortigia presence without excess.

Writing Experience

At the heart of the Aurora 888 Ortigia fountain pen is an in-house 18k gold nib, crafted in Turin by one of the few manufacturers that design and produce their own nibs. The result is a writing feel that is both precise and expressive, with a natural smoothness and control that rewards careful handwriting and longer sessions alike. A choice of extra fine, fine, medium, broad, and stub nibs allows you to match line character to your personal style.

The integrated piston-filling mechanism provides generous ink capacity and dependable flow, well suited to daily journaling, note-taking, and correspondence. The system is engineered for consistency, pairing smoothly with Aurora's nib tuning for a stable, confident script across a wide range of inks.

Heritage

Founded in 1919 in Turin, Aurora has shaped Italian penmaking for over a century. The 88 line stands as a cornerstone of that legacy, uniting industrial design discipline with artisanal finishing. The 888 Ortigia Limited Edition continues this tradition with a modern colorway and the brand's enduring commitment to making pens entirely in Italy, down to the nib.
