The initial production was made of [[hard rubber]] models with the classical [[eyedropper filler|eyedropper]] or [[safety]] filler, clearly inspired by the pens produced by American companies like [[Waterman]] that at that time began to be marketed in Italy. These were black hard rubber pens in or smooth or [[BCHR|chased]] version, and also, but much more rare [[mottled]] models. There were also luxury models in gold plated or laminated metal [[overlay]], and also in full gold, which quality had nothing to envy to the pen produced by the more famous American brands.

In the '20s the company began to produce [[lever filler]] hard rubber pens: the [[A.R.A]] model, standing for ''Aurora a Riempimento Automatico''<ref>meaning ''automatic filling [[Aurora]]''</ref> had a great success beyond the Italy boundaries and led [[Aurora]] alongside the major European manufacturers. At that time, the company followed the common practice of European producers who saw them build models similar to those marketed by big American producers, who then dominated the stylistic trends and technological development. But although they were obvious imitations, these models often ended up to be well above the original production for their quality or for specific stylistic achievements.
