Pelikan M1000 Dragon Maki-e limited edition.

Written by Catherine on Wednesday 27 September 2023 in Japanese pens

Each year Pelikan joins a M1000 fountain pen with traditional Japanese craftmanship. In 2023 we welcome the Dragon. The Dragon is a very significant legendary spiritual, mythical creature in Chinese mythology, appearing in myths, ornaments, works of art, and architecture of East Asia. It is a powerful symbol and is considered to be the source of all the power. It is often used as a symbol of Chinese emperors. Dragon summons thunderclouds and storms, becomes a tornado, rises into the sky, and flies freely. It lurks in the abyss in autumn and rises to the heavens in spring. With 123 copies for the world we can offer you one!

 

 

Platinum Chou Kuro, the blackest black ... ever!

Written by Catherine on Tuesday 12 September 2023 in Ink

The new ink, Chou Kuro, whose blackness has been proven by numerical values, offers a bright and intense black color, and allows notes to be preserved permanently. It is made with pigment particles that react with the mineral content of the paper as you write. It doesn't bleed, is water and fade-resistant, and is ideal for writing anything you want to keep for a lifetime. It is special ink but take a look at @inky.rocks video and all will become clear. Enjoy!

Note: the luxury boxes are no longer available. Soon the bottles will be back in stock.
