Aurora Optima Repaired and Back From Italy!

Aurora Optima Fountain Pen Repair

Earlier in September I broke my beloved Aurora Optima.  The piston knob came off while I was cleaning it.

Having sent other pens to Italy for repair I expected a 3-6 month turn around so I was delighted when my Optima arrived only 2 months later.

I am so glad to have the Optima back, though I am scared to see the bill.
