And you don't get it anymore

[fountainpagan]

I know, Mehandiratta. That is also one of the reasons, I was so happy to get it, and why it is a precious pen to me. Besides, it is beautifully finished ( the photos don't do justice to it), and behaves greatly.

[flummoxed]

Glad to be of help! That looks wonderful.

 

@ flummoxed.

 

Here is the picture you have requested me.

I have to thank you, because I didn't know Habibi. I went browsing for it, and liked what I found. I have ordered it.

Beautiful colour! Which one is that? Is this in Bakul finish?

@MuddyWaters - Not bakul, no. Regular Ranga polishing.

Colour #18, Brick Red (mine looks more deep burgundy)- Khaki Ripple, Regular ebonite.

Ah, my bad. The title of the thread says "Show us your ebonite fountain pens". Had not noticed it was in the India & Subcontinent (Asia) forum.

 

Amyway, Bexley.

One of the nicest variations of fountain pen I really love all of them What is the shade of the blue ? Plain blue or navy ?

[mehandiratta]

Today in use is one of my all time favorite ebonite pen which is made in India, Krishna Solo 2. It is fitted with MB Upturned Grind nib from Dr. Sreekumar of Krishna Pens. The pen is filled with Private Reserve Shoreline Gold Ink.

That dragonfly roll stop is just beautiful! Where did you get it, if you don't mind me asking? I'm hoping to get an Asa Nauka this year ....

[fountainpagan]

Thank you, bbs.

 

It is a charm I had found. I had it hammered and adjusted to the Nauka.

[mehandiratta]

Today I am using Guider Onyx which looks extremely similar to Nakaya Piccolo is fitted with #5 Steel Medium Nib from Wality and it is filled with Iroshizuku Momiji ink.
