The Deccan "Masterpiece"

Recommended Posts

Wanted to share some pics of my latest acquisition called the Deccan Masterpiece. This is a new offering from the Deccan pen stores in Hyderabad and the moment I heard that such a pen was available, I had it arranged to be picked up, I could somehow manage to buy the last piece available(Thanks Jai!)...

Very nice lighting and exposures on the black pens, hari. There is a lot of shadow detail visible and that's not easy to do with a black pen. That reminds me, I need to work on my lighting technique.

Nice pen, Hari! What's it made of, ebonite?

Wow! Really cool ! :thumbup:

 

I've never seen like this before!

 

Do you know if the Deccan store takes orders from outside India?

Hari, this pen is really handsome! I believe hand-full also! How is the writing comfort? Performance out of the box (packet?)??

Cheers!

Hi Dimpu, yes I bought this pen from Deccan at Abids in Hyderabad. You might want to enquire the cost and availability directly from them, I had bought this pen a while back.

 

Best Wishes,

Hi Hari, Do you have a contact info for the Deccan store? Do you have other Deccan Pens, that you can share pictures of? I may be able to purchase through a local friend, but obviously I could benefit from some visuals. Any information you provide will be helpful.

Hello,

I am new to this forum, but have been facinated by the sheer range and quality of Indian pens.

I have just bought a Guider Jumbo and a Green Supreme.

However seeing the Deccan Materpiece I am very keen to acquire on of these as well.

Are you still selling them? If not do you know how I can get one as I am based in the UK.

My thanks in advance for your help.

Kind regards

Welcome to FPN and thanks for your interest in Indian made pens. You will find alot of posts in this photgraphy forum where my colleagues Jai, Ashishwakhlu, tractionavant and me have tried to document various models.

 

Best,

Hari

I have the same pen from Deccan Pen Stores.... In fact, I have many hand-made pens from Deccan pens.... We buy from them since ages. My grandfather, my father and now I buy from them... the quality is really good... they have fixed all my pens and still many pens are with them as they are fixing.... they had some last pieces left back in 2009 but then in 2014, they came up with some more pieces. When I bought they had only 3... now I dont know... I am attaching other pens along with this post, that I bought from Deccan Pen Stores...The quality is just amazing... when you write, it feels really good.... and I am unable to attach pictures :-/

how to attach pictures? :-/

      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
