There are four seas in the Mediterranean Sea called the Italian Seas. One of them is the Ionian Sea.

The town of Riace is where a bronze statue said to have sunk into the sea was discovered around the 2nd century BC. The Ionian Sea is also known for the Temple of Hera, the first great temple to use the Ionic style, located on the island of Samos. This model is dedicated to the great ocean, which contrasts beautifully with Mt.

Etna, Europe's largest active volcano. Since then, he has continued to influence the world of writing instruments through his unique designs and mechanisms, constantly seeking to match "function" and design. We are one of the few manufacturers that produce everything from the nib to the body in our own factory.

Additionally, the Aurora is outstanding not only in terms of design but also in terms of technology. Aurora's unique "piston suction type with reserve tank" is an innovative mechanism that automatically supplies ink from the reserve tank (spare tank) even if the ink runs out while writing by turning the tail shaft and pushing down the piston. In addition, Aurora's unique resin block has been praised for its beautiful and deep flavor, so much so that it has been nicknamed Auroroid Resin. In 1940, the 88, designed by famous industrial designer Marcello Nizzoli, was released. With the latest piston type ink filling method that rotates at the tip of the barrel, it quickly became a popular model, achieving sales of over 1,000,000 units throughout Europe, an unprecedented number for a writing instrument.

More than 50 years later, it is still treated like a treasure by those who own it in Italy. In 1970, ``Astill'' was released by Marco Zaunun, a famous architect known for his designs for Milan's municipal buses. This famous brand continues to carve its name in the history of the writing instrument world, including being the first writing instrument to be permanently exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. Optima in the 1930s, "88" in the 40s, Astil/Tessie in the 70s, Epsilon and Tarentum in the 90s, and has always been synonymous with "Aurora".

It is no exaggeration to say that Aurora's achievements and history are the ``history of Italian pens''. See the pictures for more details.
