This is a nicely functioning piston-fill fountain pen from Aurora. Internet sleuthing suggests that Aurora produced these pens from old, overstocked parts. The pen fills and writes very well, with a rather stiff, medium nib. The barrel has a grained, satin finish and the cap is fashioned from a roughly brushed stainless steel. The clip is also of the this material and is rather crudely executed. Nevertheless, for the price this appears to be a very serviceable, great writing fountain pen suitable for everyday use. Piston filled pens are getting hard to find - especially in this price range.
