Krishna Bai "Kerala Sky"

 

I will make a review soon.

 

Cap's top and body's bottom are in the same green as the section.

 

Blue and green "Lord Krishna's colours", said Dr Sreekumar.

Today I am using my new acquisition, Constellation 88 Elements- Sulfur. It is fitted with Bock no 6 Steel Fine nib and filled with Iroshizuku Tsuki Yo. It is the most beautiful pen I have. Here are some pics.fpn_1500097929__photo6289330429731383276

The pen is well made and has impeccable finish. It has a solid feel and is well balanced in hand.

Beautiful blue, VaibhavSukhdeve. Do you have other Rangas?

 

I also like the quote you chose.

 

Thank you for sharing.

No Sir this is the only Ranga's gem I own now but I am looking forward to buy Model 8.

 

Thank You :)

The pen I am using today is very beautiful Guider acrylic medium. It is a capsule shaped pen with schmidt <f> nib. The pen looks stunning and writes smooth. Currently inked with Krishna Green Leaf.

May I ask a question? What is the best way to access some of these lovely designs? Through the forum, or do the craftspeople have their own websites?

 

There are multiple websites (and eBay shops) selling Indian pens. So far I know: fprevolutionusa.com (own production + others), www.peytonstreetpens.com (Ranga), asapens.in (own production + others). Googling the pen name usually helps.

Is there then a preferred route to take to acquiring a Ranga (in this example)?

 

I don't think there is a "one size fits all" preferred way. It depends heavily on your preferences, especially on your sensitivity to price and potential risk. I would buy from well-known websites ​verified by customers (from Peyton Street Pens in this particular case).

Okay, thank you :D That has given me a better understanding of the landscape.

 

Ranga sells their pens at Ebay. Just look for Ranga. Otherwise Mr Kandan (Mpkandan) is a member here.

      Oh to have that translucent pink Prera! @migo984 has the Oeste series named after birds. There is a pink one, so I’m assuming Este is the same pen as Oeste.    Excellent haul. I have some Uniball One P pens. Do you like to use them? I like them enough, but don’t use them too much yet.    Do you or your wife use Travelers Notebooks? Seeing you were at Kyoto, I thought of them as there is a store there.

      It's not nearly so thick that I feel it comprises my fine-grained control, the way I feel about the Cross Peerless 125 or some of the high-end TACCIA Urushi pens with cigar-shaped bodies and 18K gold nibs. Why would you expect me or anyone else to make explicit mention of it, if it isn't a travesty or such a disappointment that an owner of the pen would want to bring it to the attention of his/her peers so that they could “learn from his/her mistake” without paying the price?

      Why nobody says that the section of Tuzu besides triangular shape is quite thick. Honestly it’s the thickest one among my many pens, other thick I own is Noodler’s Ahab. Because of that fat section I feel more control and my handwriting has improved. I can’t say it’s comfortable or uncomfortable, but needs a moment to accommodate. It’s funny because my school years are long over. Besides this pen had horrible F nib. Tines were perfectly aligned but it was so scratchy on left stroke that collecte

      Awesome! I'm in the process of preparing my bag for our pen meet this weekend and I literally have none of the items you mention!! I'll see if I can find one or two!

      @asota -- Yeah, I think I have a few rolls in my fridge that are probably 20-30 years old at this point (don't remember now if they are B&W or color film) and don't even really know where to get the film processed, once the drive through kiosks went away....  I just did a quick Google search and (in theory) there was a place the next town over from me -- but got a 404 error message when I tried to click on the link....  Ruth Morrisson aka inkstainedruth
