    When I was a schoolkid, from the late 1980s to mid-1990s, Chinese Wing Sung fountain pens were ubiquitous – found in every household, office, school, college, and court. The hooded Wing Sung (model no. 612) was the darling of all. From student to professional, every person had at least one Wing Sung hooded nib pen in their possession. You would expect to be gifted at least one Wing Sung on your birthday at that time frame. These pens were very reliable. And it was a very practical writing instrument. I received quite a few Wing Sung FPs as a gift during my school days. I preserved them very well. I have only inked the others up two or three times. However, I have consistently used one black Wing Sung 612 from 1997 to the present day. The remaining pens are stored safely. Please refer to the attached photos for a clearer understanding. Thank you all!

    Hi All, I have four 'LILY' fountain pens in my collection (photo attached), each from different eras. The Lily 712 and 718 models (both in green) are from the early '90s, while the two black Lily 718 pens (which have different cap designs) date back to the mid or late '80s. Currently one black Lily 718 is inked up with Waterman Serenity Blue. The others are still in unused condition. I could not find sufficient information on the internet regarding the specific 'Lily' brand. However, I recall that in India, during the late '80s to late '90s, the 'Lily' fountain pen was highly sought after. The highest-selling pens were Wing Sung 612 & 233. However, 'Lily' pens were in high demand. I would love to know more about this particular brand. Thank you.

    Hi All, I have 2 vintage Wing Sung fountain pens in my collection (photos attached). They are a smooth writer and in excellent shape. But there is no model number engraved on the cap lips. I know one of these models is the Wing Sung 612 (the golden cap, teal blue barrel pen), but in my pen the '612' is not engraved. The other pen is a full golden one. Both pens are hooded, and their filling mechanism is identical. In fact, both the caps are identical and interchangeable. Can anybody help me identify these two pens? Thank you.

    Hi guys, I am looking at this pen with a lot of of interest. But I don’t want to pay over £30 for a pen that will break on me. Has anyone been using this for a while? Can you attest to their reliability? I want to try a vacuum filling system and these have the nicest body by far. I am particularly fond of the Sherry Acrylic. I know the nibs aren’t the best on this brand, but I would be willing to change it if it’s possible. I am getting more interested in custom grinds... Any advice/experiences? thanks 😊

    I recently saw this FP on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/180965896537 Before pulling the trigger wanted to ask if anyone used it before? Any opinion or suggestion? Thanks
