Ratnamson Fountain Pen is handcrafted pen made of high quality Ebonite material. Ratnamson is a brand name of Ratnam Ball Pen Works, Rajahmundry. Andhra Pradesh.
In 1932, KV Ratnam, a resident of Rajamundrhy was highly impressed by Mahatma Gandhiji’s call for “ Made in India” products, that would be cheaper than foreign products, thus, easily accessible to everyone. With the help of a book with instructions, KV Ratnam made a handmade fountain pen, made from scratch. The first fountain pen by “Ratnam Pens” was gifted to Mahatma Gandhi in 1935, and received a note of appreciation from the legend himself, praising the quality and craftsmanship.
