Can you identify the materials in the lower photos please?

[Jamerelbe]

I've been waiting months for this Group Buy to come along - Model 8B with JoWo nibs! Ordered a premium ebonite (blue/pink/pale yellow swirl) threaded to take a JoWo nib...

 

Many thanks M.P. Kandan and Ranga Pens.

 

[Edited to add:] I've opted for clipless, as with most of my Rangas - they're too long to clip into my shirt pocket anyway, and I think the clip detracts from the look of the pen, rather than adding to it!

Can you identify the materials in the lower photos please?

 

The last 4 photos, I'm fairly certain, are:

 

Blue/Pink/Pale Yellow Swirl (P14)

Solid Forest Green (S1) in Bakul (matte) finish

Teal Blue / Orange Ripple (S20) in polished finish

Forest Green / Honey Ripple (S3) in polished finish.

 

That last one I'm *less* certain about - but I can't see any pens in the line-up that look closer in colour. My Model C in forest green / honey ripple is somewhat darker, and the colours follow a 'swirl' pattern similar to the blue-orange ripple pen immediately above it...

Hi Mr. Kandan,

 

I was very much looking forward to this group buy too! Form submitted. I requested a polished clipless model in S20 (teal/orange) threaded to take Bock 250 but without the nib unit.

 

*Payment made

Especially excited at the new premium ebonite offerings - and that some of the standard options are available again.

Last one is the premium ebonite yellow green swirl (P7)

[mehandiratta]

Also eyedropper option with Kanwrite nib is available in this group buy ...

[sillyman]

I got one before the group buy and it is really a well made classic shaped pen. Reminds me of the Oldwin fountain pen.

Now I feel like I want another in a different color. Hmmm...choices galore....

[mehandiratta]

I myself have booked for two pens

[Jamerelbe]

@mehandiratta, thanks for the correction - that possibility occurred to me, but it didn't look quite like the P7 pen in the other pictures!

Very tempted to do the same - some of the colour options haven't been available for a long time!

[fountainpen51]

Sent and pyment for model S17, No Nib - Threaded for JoWo #6.


*Mr. Kandan, I have noticed that the ripple in some pens, from the cap go in the opposite direction to the barrel, Is it possible to ensure the correct direction of the barrel S17 photo?

Thanks.

I'm in for another clipless one, this one with an Indian flex nib. Excited about that. This time it will be in special ebonite, polished, color teal (S7) swirl.

@mhguda, I'm sure you'll love the material: I have a teal blue / orange ripple bamboo pen, in bakul finish - more orange swirls than blue in mine, but it's a great colour combination!

[inky-finger]

Just made the payment for S1, Polished, Clipless, and Kanwrite Flex. And the waiting begin...😊

[kfoss]

Entered! I'm hoping you do one for #5 nibs at some point... I have a bunch of #5 nibs and feeds with no home!

[bbs]

Thanks again, Mr Kandan! Now to hope for a Model 3 group buy with all these options ....

[jjlax10]

Two submitted. Excited to see the Maroon.

[almoore]

Hi

 

Just opted in for a polished black clipless CC with a black #6 nib. Now the hard part, waiting ☺

Too tempting! Just added a yellow/black to the red/black ..... Fine and extra-fine Bock nibs, one yellow, one chrome, both clipless and polished ebonite.
