AP Limited Editions was founded by Anuj Poddar, an avid pen and art collector whose fascination with fine writing instruments began at the age of nine when he first learned penmanship. Raised in India and later studying in England, Poddar’s passion for fountain pens flourished in London’s vibrant artistic scene. After moving to the United States, he became an active member of the pen collector community, spending years exploring traditional art forms and studying the technicalities required to craft the finest writing instruments. His dedication culminated in the creation of AP Limited Editions in February 2006, in Los Angeles, where he realized his vision of producing pens that are not only functional but true works of art.
Driven by a passion for heritage craftsmanship, AP Limited Editions pushes the boundaries of traditional Lacquer Art, creating exquisite pens that are heirlooms to be cherished for generations. With the Bespoke service, Poddar offers customers the opportunity to bring their unique expressions to life on a personalized pen. Over the years, the brand has garnered numerous nominations and awards for the Best Pen of The Year in various categories, solidifying its reputation as a symbol of luxury, artistry, and craftsmanship in the world of writing instruments.
