I wish you had posted a picture of the nib. By the shape it looks like it's based on the Aurora Hastil. There was also a Marco Polo version with a gold nib and wide cap band, and a Ferrari version attributed to Dupont or Aurora with a wide band on the barrel.

 

I've seen a few other manufacturer names on Hastil variations. Aurora must have been busy producing these for a number of clients.

 

Does the nib and section match these?

Looks like one of the many Italian pens that were based on the Aurora designs. Often the only name on the pen was the store where it was sold. Here is an example that was made by Ferrari da Varese.

Since this version actually is Sterling silver it has the guild marks to show origin but nowhere on the pen is the name Ferrari da Varese found. The section and nib on this example were most likely shopped, made by some other Italian company and only the body made by Ferrari da Varese and most likely as a contract for some jewelry store to be sold as a store brand.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
