Show Us Your Ebonite Fountain Pens

I am not crazy about the color (although I generally like green, this shade just does not appeal to me), but I really like the aesthetics otherwise. I wonder if it's available, still, and in other shades/colors. And I would be interested to know what nibs are available with it.

 

Check Peyton Street Pens' website - they have two versions of Bamboo (slim and full-size) in an array of colours with full range of JoWo nibs. No affiliation, just a happy regular ;)

Practice, patience, perseverance

Nice looking pen and impressive penmanship. This Lamy ink is quite spectacular - probably I should try it too.

Lamy Turquoise was my first ink apart from normal Royal Blue.. and i Still love it...

Pen in rotation is Ranga Model 8 one of my most ergonomic pen and this one is in premium yellow black swirl ebonite. And it is inked with J.Herbin Lie De The. This ink has become my favourite brown ink.

Thank you Ak2k5.

 

The blank is Ranga's. Varuna Bamboo was a pen made by Ranga for a british seller, among other models, This was the last pen of this particular ebonite, and model. All the other models are the classical red, green and brown ebonite.

 

I could not tell you the color Ranga calls it. But, seing their site, I believe it is among what they call "premium ebonite".

thanks for the information...a model 4c with that ebonite would have been amazing but unfortunately dont have enough funds to buy a premium fountain pen now... :wacko:

I checked with them. This color is out of stock at the moment. :-(

So I understood, pyiushsingh, because Mehandiratta said the same thing when I showed the Ranga 3C (disappeared from the forum, and that I am reposting here). I believe that one was probably one of the last pens made with that blank colour.

 

 

Because my previous posts, concerning many of my indian pens, have disappeared :( , I re-post them.

We will see if they will resist :lol:
