Description

Marking 700 years since Dante Alighieri, the most influential medieval writer, is no longer with us, Aurora created a homage collection of 3 writing instruments : Dante Inferno - Dante Purgatory - Dante Paradise. Divina Comedia, one of the greatest works of medieval poetry of Dante, served inspiration for the Aurora collection. Crafted from blue resin and featuring silver color accents - Purgatorio is elegant, discrete, speaking of the soul cleansing Purgatory. A slim turquoise resin ring divides the barrel from the end knob, this is a unique feature of only this collection, different colors for each of the 3 pens.

Trim elements are engraved with a leaf motif, cap finial features a portrait engraving of Dante Alighieri. Proudly made in Italy, the fountain pen comes with "Italy" engraved on the edge of the cap finial and the "Italian Tricolore" flag in enamel - located on the barrel ring.

Aurora equipped Dante Purgatorio fountain pen with a in house made 18k Gold - Rhodium plated to match the Rhodium plated accents of the fountain pen, friction fitted together with the ebonite feeder. Section features a small and elegant ink window. A very smooth and ingenious piston filling mechanism, offers the user a drop of ink in case of need, this is an unique feature of Aurora only.

Aurora Dante Purgatorio fountain pen is part of a numbered - limited edition, available in stock at Pen Venture.

Amazing Pen! Gravitas makes one of the best piston fillers out there. I dont keep the nib and normally use the pen for coustom flex nibs with Jowo #6 compatible nib units. So, i really cant speak on the nib. However, this pen is just built with high quality components. The weight, feel, and overall aesthetics are unmatched. You wont find better at this price point.

Platinum Sansui - Smooth Operator

I recently acquired the Platinum Maki-e Sansui pen in a Medium nib. The Pen Venture team was kind enough to carefully inspect and tune this pen before sending it on to me. Many thanks for that. It writes very smoothly and with a steady flow of ink. The Medium nib is my favorite nib configuration from the Platinum brand. The line width is nice and thin and always writes consistently right of the box. This lovely Maki-e pen was no different. I highly recommend it.

Gravitas #6 extra fine nib

The extra fine nib came tuned to perfection—a joy to write with. Thank you Emy!

FANTASTIC!

The VAC 2.0 is a great improvement to an already great pen (the original VAC Ultem). The weight and balance are spot on. The cap and the new threads engage without hesitation. No missed closures and the cap has a nice stop when threading back on. It posts securely without issue. Filling with the Kraken system is easy. I got a medium nib and it is smoooooooth. Mine is on par with my 823 medium nib The smoothness, wetness and bounce would make you think it's a gold nib. Line width is slightly narrower than the 823 medium. The pen feels solid and well built. I'm not worried about this one getting knocked around. Overall a great pen. Shipping from Pen-Venture to Colorado was five days! Great pen and service all around!

Gravitas Monster

Elegant in its simplicity. Fit and finish are top of the mark. Every Gravitas pen I own is a pleasure to write with. I always have one as my daily carry.
