Smoking a cigar, as we know, is a kind of “ritual,” a celebration of the good life. Aurora’s 88 Sigaro 883-T pen, from the Italian company founded in 1919 in Turin renowned for its artistic craftsmanship in writing instruments, precisely captures this essence. It’s a refined pen designed to embody the essence of the cigar smoking experience, thanks to several distinctive features. The primary brown hue of this pen evokes the color of tobacco leaves; various elements, including gold accents, exude an elegant style closely associated with the world of luxury cigars.
The pen is crafted in 18-karat gold. Full gold can also be found in the nib, meticulously designed to ensure the most precise and comfortable writing experience. Adorning the nib are engraved round motifs, along with the inscription “18K” denoting the luxurious material integrated into the pen. The unique design of the engraved number “88” on the pen’s body evokes feelings of luxury, opulence, and excellence.
Belonging to Aurora’s Ottantotto series, a collection of iconic writing instruments designed by Marcello Nizzoli, first introduced in the 1950s, the series symbolizes, among other things, classic design and the company’s meticulous manufacturing process, blending traditional craftsmanship with advanced technology. Aside from the current model with its brown-gold tones, the series also includes pens in blue and black lacquer with chrome trims, 19-karat gold accents, full gold nibs, and rhodium plating. The pen pictured is priced at 880 euros.
