Aurora celebrates 2016 with the eagerly anticipated Optima 365 Abissi Limited Edition. There are only 366 numbered pieces available worldwide, one to commemorate each special day of the year, including an extra pen in honor of the Leap Year. We have managed to secure a very limited number for our customers - once they are gone, there will be no more.

A little explanation is necessary here: Even though it does not seem like it, this is the same pen shot under two different lighting conditions. The top image is shot in our indoor lighting setup. The bottom is shot outdoors in direct sunlight. Although you may rarely have this Optima in direct sunlight, these colors are there and hint at their presence even with indirect light.


This is a pen that must truly be seen in person to appreciate the complexity of the subtle color shifts. With our usual lighting set-up, the colors do not show up - the pen goes dark. However when we put the pen in the sun, a single and very directional light source, the iridescent parts pop. The colors become particularly intense and beautiful showing a vivid pattern and a range of blues and greens.

 


The Aurora Optima 365 Abissi Limited Edition fountain pen is made from green marble Auroloide and flecked with flakes of blue. Deep black on the section and flat cap ends provides luxurious design, while gold trim highlights the warmth of this quality writing instrument.


The large cap band is inscribed with the Aurora logo as well as the classic Greek key pattern. An imprint on the barrel authenticates that this pen was made in Italy.

Aurora's generous piston-filler system allows this pen to utilize any standard bottled fountain pen ink, including Aurora's own richly-hued inks in Black and in Blue. A clear ink window allows you to know when it's time for an ink refill.

 Featuring the signature Optima flat-top cap and an elegant gold clip, the 365 Abissi Limited Edition is an upscale writing instrument. At the top of the cap you will find the limited edition number, inscribed in gold script.


Aurora nib units are designed to be easily interchangeable - see our Aurora nibs page for pricing on additional nib units.

 


The Aurora Optima 365 Abissi Limited Edition arrives in a high quality presentation box and includes a bottle of Aurora ink.
