The Nauka is a hand-made fountain pen from the company “ASA” out of Chennai, India. I ordered the Nauka in matte black ebonite with a broad nib, and I absolutely love the pen. The price, when ordering from the USA, is about $60, but if you’re ordering from India, it’s less than half of that: just 2200 rupees. Check out the ASA pens website for ordering details.
