In today’s Quick Look, I’m showing off the Aurora Duo Cart. This particular fountain pen model was available around 50 years ago, and while not exactly the same, Aurora did a great job reviving it. For more details on this vintage-inspired beauty, be sure to watch the video above! Here are a few highlights:
- As of August 2019, there are five colors available:
- Hooded nib, allowing you to grip as close to the nib as you want
- Nearly no step at all, very streamlined design
- Features a wet-writing stainless steel nib that’s currently only available with a medium nib
- Great for long form note writing because it’s smooth, lightweight (24g), and easy to hold
- Snap cap, but does required an intentional push to post
- Price does vary between color options
If you’re looking for a modern pen with vintage flair, the Aurora Duo Cart is a great option. For more details and up-to-date specs on the Aurora Duo Cart be sure to check it out on GouletPens.com.
