Where To Buy Indian Fountain Pens?

Recommended Posts

My first post, just received my Dilli from Kevin in just seven days from India to UK, most impressed, the flex pen works well, a great improvement over my last flex pen, an Ahab which consistently refused to function properly. Also delighted to get a free Serwex 162 piston filler in the parcel, amazing value, FountainpenRevolution, big thumbs up from me.

Check the FPN Classifieds. I have a lovely ebonite Ranga purchased from Kandan.M.P. I really think it is a cool pen.

But has anybody an idea of how to get hold of a Ratnam pen? All I could find out so far is their address and phone number in Rajahmundry, but for the moment, I am too shy to call. If anybody else would like to try:

 

Mr. K.V.Ramanamurthy

Ratnam Ball Pen Works,

10-7-18, Fort Gate,

Rajahmundry

Andhra Pradesh

India

533101

 

Ph: 0883 – 2498782

 

I found this in a rather old post somewhere on the web, but as they have producing for many decades there, I don't think that they moved in the last four years. I imagine that they must have an e-mail address by now...

 

I am living in Berlin, Germany, so a European address or a European website is what I am dreaming of.

 

I just fell in love with eyedroppers.

Edit: I should have looked a little closer right here on this network. This post answered my prayers!

      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
