Hi there,

I am Saji - the owner of this online store www.kiwipens.com 

Since I was a kid, I've had a passion for stationery, especially fountain pens. I've been collecting them since my school days. Over the years, I've collected a ton of pens, with a focus on Indian ones. A few years ago, I had the privilege of meeting Mr. A C Ramachandran (ACR), one of India's master pen makers, which marked a special moment in my life. I would visit him during my free time and learned the art of fountain pen making from this master craftsman. Unfortunately, ACR, the greatest pen maker, passed away in December 2024.

KIM ACR branded pens were handmade by A C Ramachandran, who dedicated 65 years to pen making. His pens are renowned for their exceptional build quality and their simple yet elegant design. A special feature of Kim ACR eyedropper fountain pens is that they never leak or burp ink.

Professionally, I am an M.Com and MBA (both in Finance) and spent 25 years in various full-time roles, including the last 18 years in the IT/ITES industry in a management position. I left my full-time job years ago to pursue this hobby business and passion. My family has been super supportive of this endeavor.
On offer at this website are mainly KIM ACR Handmade Ebonite Fountain Pens, in addition to other Vintage and high quality Indian pens and accessories. 

I have been selling on eBay, under the seller name xunil71 and run an Etsy shop named KiwiPens. I guarantee 100% satisfaction to all my customers.

Thanks for reading. 🙂
