india Any suggestions for Indian wooden handmade pens?
Srjan posted a topic in India & Subcontinent (Asia)
I do not know if SYAHI pens is still operating but they make beautiful wooden pens. There is also Lotus Shikhar in Sandalwood and I know Lotus also makes sandalwood pens in other models. It will be great if there is someone like Ryan Krusac in India, who makes pens in different types of woods. -
