August'2015 Visit To Deccan Pens, Some Finds

[hari317]

A few days in the last week were spent in Hyderabad, a long time since my last visit there. I met up with my friend Jai for an evening of enjoying our common hobby of pens together. We went to the Abids branch of Deccan pen stores, met with Wasim bhai, Farooq, the Elder brother who runs the Greenlands branch and towards the end of our visit Zubair came in, who runs the RP Road(Secundrabad) branch.

 

We found a few new models on display, including some rare old stock Onyxes with Hema nibs, an very old stock lovely matte ebonite pen with a golden cap from the Deccan archives, a very special ultra slim fountain pen introduced recently, a new version of their famous Ambassador and a new version of the wonderful Majaz sporting a new clip and a new nib.

 

a small pic of the haul:

I will be documenting these models in separate posts as and when time permits.

 

The evening was wound up with some excellent drinks and dinner at "The water front" with a lovely view of Hussain sagar.

Thank you. I will document the pens one by one, the first pen is the Zareen, I have posted a thread about it here:

The unusual clip pen is indeed quite unusual, will show it a bit later.

Yes, it is a very interesting pen, I will take some pictures and show, but it will take some time. Pls bear with me.

I just cant help myself when i see the pens at Deccan. I keep some, I modify some, I offer some on FPN classifieds from time to time.

That, sir, is not a haul. It is a horde! Well done, and lovely pens too.
