Flair Mini Fountain Pen

[sajiskumar]

Hi,
It is a small fountain pen from an old Indian brand named Flair. The aerometric filled pen has gold plated fittings - Clip, Cap Finial , Barrel End and a wide Barrel Ring. It has a gold plated tipped nib, engraved with "Flair Duranium". Though the section length is 25 mm long, part (8 mm) of the section is hooded under the gold plated barrel ring. The pen writes smooth with little bit feedback.

That's quite an attractive little pen. The red/gold combination is one I've always liked. What is the material on the body and cap?

I think a Wing Sung 590.

Yes Hari, it's a NOS pen, but I have only one.

You are correct, the compared pen was a Wing Sung 590.
