A&Co. Pens, known for its handcrafted artistic fountain pens, is set to participate for the first time in the Chennai Pen Show 2026. The brand, originating from Pune, India, specializes in creating functional works of art that combine traditional techniques with storytelling elements, appealing to collectors of fine writing instruments and cultural artifacts.
To mark this debut, A&Co. Pens will introduce a fountain pen designed in homage to Thiruvalluvar, the revered Tamil poet and philosopher who authored the Thirukkural. The pen draws inspiration from the iconic statue of Thiruvalluvar, aiming to honor Tamil literature, philosophy, and wisdom.
In addition, the showcase will reveal two new collections. The Eminence Collection consists of finely crafted pens that emphasize distinction and refined craftsmanship. The Regalia Collection, meanwhile, incorporates themes of heritage, symbolism, and regal design aesthetics.
Nasir Shaikh, the founder of A&Co. Pens, commented on the event: “Chennai has a rich literary and cultural heritage, and we felt it was only fitting to present a pen inspired by Thiruvalluvar at our first appearance here. Through this piece, we hope to celebrate not only the art of writing, but also the timeless wisdom that writing preserves.”
Attendees can explore these offerings, including the Thiruvalluvar-inspired pen and the new collections alongside other signature lines, at Hall No. 3, Stalls 10 and 11 during the Chennai Pen Show 2026.
