World’s most expensive pen is priced at one million euros


Blame us for reporting on it, or its manufacturer for creating it, but the Aurora Diamante is the most expensive writing instrument till date. There’s still an audience who takes pride in following the through line of art, and this Italian masterpiece targets such serious collectors. The pen features over 30 carats of diamonds, and is available in solid platinum or white gold versions. The pen has 18KT solid gold nib and a two-tone, rhodium-treated solid platinum barrel with an exquisite diamond cabochon crown that features nearly two thousand “4 C” certified De Beers diamonds on a two hectogram, which makes it a rare piece. The lucky buyers can further get it personalized with their coat-of-arms, signature or portrait. Apparently, only a single piece will be available for sale per year for around one million euros.
