    Default My prize stable of 4 Aurora Pens

    Last week I managed to win an Aurora Optima Auroloide Green pen to write alongside its sister Optima Blue Auroloide.

    That makes 4 Auroras and hopefully soon to be five when I obtain the third Auroloide in Burgundy. It is my magnificent obsession.

    Leomitch,
    That is a handsome selection of pens. The Green one is especially attractive. I like that they seem to have different imprints around the cap bands.
    Do you have different nibs in them ?

    Best wishes with your collecting.

    Hi Bogan
    I am glad you like them.
    The reason the gold ring on the cap is different from the blue Auroloide is that the green pen is older and that design gold ring is discontinued in favour of the design you see on the blue Auroloide. Goodness...what a complex sentence! Clear as mud eh! LOL! Well, you understand what I'm getting at I'm sure! Too early in the morning and no coffee yet!

    Now that I know large pens do work for me, I am quite enamored as well...the cap ring is stunning, as the rest of the design...

    I must admit, if I were to buy a pen for myself, which I have never done, I would purchase the Aurora Optima Demo in Red; really great color!

    You must have, surely! Never ever ever?!
