Mr Manoj Deshmukh is an artist who sculpts incredible pens. The acrylic resins he sculpted for me were cast to my request. His pens are large pens with beautiful asthetics and balance. The nibs and filling systems are as desired by you as he offers a very large amount of customisation. I bought three pens from him. All pens have Schmidt B or M nibs. lava and Tikona are Cartridge -Converter fillers.

The first was black, red, yellow and gold resin which resembles a lava flow hence the name Lava...

The second was Tikona (triangular in Hindi) in blue acrylic..

And the latest is this green and gold acrylic button filler with sterling silver trim...

All these pens have cost between US$75 to 80. They are not only a pleasure to write with but also head turners. Here is a pictoral review of these pens. They can be bought at www.fosforpens.com ...

 

The pens come in a beautiful wooden box shaped like a book with lid held down by an elastic band...

The latest is this green and gold Button Filler, reminiscent of the 1930s Duofolds and other button fillers...it comes with sterling silver cap rings and clip...

These pens are absolutely wonderful and genuine peaces of art since each is a bespoke pen and no 2 are alike perhaps.

I am longing for a Fosfor fountain pen. Your Fosfor Lava is gorgeous!!!!!! After viewing Vaibhav Mehandiratta's Fosfor's pen - a stunning pen block was used, I look forward to owning one.

Thank you for your review, and especially the wonderful photography. The green button-filler is enough to bring tears to the eyes of a vintage-pen lover. Not only are the design, colors, and proportions just right for a pen of the 1930s, but the figuring in the cap is wonderful.

Impressive pens.. saving up to place an order for a wooden pen..

Is ruthenium nib option provided superior to other jowo nibs?
