Beena is a well-known brand for fountain pens in India. Here are some previous posts on other models of Beena: Magic: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/335371-beena-magic-nos-w-a-retractable-nib/ Beena 500/Lincoln: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/89413-beena-500/ V'Sign Stride: https://www.fountainpennetwork.com/forum/topic/355022-beena-vsign-stride-fountain-pen/ When I first saw the pictures of the model called 'Antic', I was drawn to it's simplicity and elegance of design. It is a small (but not slim) pen [length = 13.4 cm, cap diameter = 1.3cm, section diameter = 1cm]. I believe it is available in maroon, blue and black colours. Cap has 'beena' and 'antic' inscribed on it. The screw-cap opens in one and a half turns to reveal a short section (2 cm long), gold-plated nib (with 'iridium point' inscribed) on a plastic feed. The pen has a "3-in-1" filling mechanism [eyedropper + converter + cartridge]. The material of the pen is plastic; it looks sturdy and solid, with good finish. I have previously used Beena 'Magic' fountain pen, and I feel that this pen is sturdier than 'Magic'. On writing, the nib is fine, wet and smooth. I think it is a good pen for everyday use. Although it is a small pen, it is not too slim nor too short. The cap posts comfortably on the barrel. Considering the cost (Rs. 120/-), it is good value for money. Please share your thoughts if you have used this pen (or other pens from Beena). Enjoy your weekend !
