Aurora is an Italian manufacturer of fine writing instruments, fountain pens, paper and leather goods, founded in 1919 by wealthy textile merchant Isaia Levi.

The company's products represent the first true Italian fountain pens and are still currently manufactured in their original factory in Turin, northern Italy.

In 1919 immediately after the World War I, the company was founded as the "Fabbrica Italiana di Penne a Serbatoio - Aurora", with the financial support of Isaia Levi, in Turin, in 1919.

In 1929, Aurora started its expansion to other European countries, which led the company to increase its production and introduce new series.

Due to the scarcity of gold during the World War II, the company replaced the material with a special alloy named "platiridio", produced and used in some economic models for students.
