Update on Stationers Warrant Holder Aurora Pens - Launch of new Mappe Antiche Collection

30 SEPTEMBER 2024

Since the dawn of time, man has dreamed of going beyond the boundaries of what is known, of drawing maps of unexplored lands. Maps are not a bare tool, but symbols of the endless passion for discovery that excites human imagination.

Aurora Pen pays homage to this love for knowledge with the new Mappe Antiche collection, five limited edition fountain pens dedicated to five antique maps, embellished with meaningful details such as the armillary head, an invaluable instrument for sailors to follow the path through the stars, and the new case back carved with the compass rose.

This collection aims to stimulate the sense of touch thanks to the special embossed sleeve that, with a simple touch, will bring you through the routes of the Ancient Maps to relive, today, the thrill of discovery.
