The Most Expensive Pen In The World:

The most expensive Pen in the world is created by a very elitist and highly regarded pen maker called Aurora. This small and highly specialized Italian company makes once every year a fountain pen called the Aurora Diamante. The pen is worth approximately US $1.3 million.

There are several reasons why this pen is so valuable. The most obvious are the 30 carats of De Beers diamonds that cover most of its visible surface. Roughly two thousand class 4 C diamonds are used in this process; it is a delicate and meticulous task that requires an impressive level of talent. The two hectogram barrel of the most expensive pen in the world is made out of solid platinum and the nib out of 18 carat gold. The nib can be customized on request to display the coat of arms of the client, the signature of the owner or even a portrait. This is understandable as the most expensive pen in the world is a highly personal item and any owner would want to leave his or her mark on it.
