Namiki Sakura Blossom at Night

Written by Catherine on Wednesday 24 July 2024 in Japanese pens

On the Yukari Cherry Blossom at Night fountain pen, Namiki illustrates: Hana-akari. The cherry blossoms ‘fall at night,’. When it takes place at night, an extraordinary phenomenon happens. The falling petals, swirling like snowflakes in the dark sky, sparkle like little stars and seem to radiate luminosity that illuminates the darkness. This magical nocturnal event delights, fascinates, and soothes its spectators!

Written by Catherine on Thursday 16 May 2024 in Japanese pens

The evergreen Ivy is often written about in poems because of its glossy, beautiful autumn leaves, and was often used as decoration, covering the exterior walls of buildings. The so-called Komon is one of the traditional Japanese kimono patterns in which the same pattern is dyed repeatedly in the same direction. The Pelikan maki-e M1000 “Ivy and Komon” has brilliant orange ivy covering the fountain pen, and in combination with the Komon patterns, it depicts a beautiful autumn. 123 pieces for the world.

Sailor Nawate Fountain Pens

Written by Catherine on Tuesday 19 December 2023 in Japanese pens

Sailor Kaku Nawate fountain pens have an ebony body (wood) covered with urushi and are decorated with haku-shirashi nuri. The cap is finished with a raised line, making these pens more elegant. They are different from shiny urushi but have something exclusive in their austerity. The wooden box resembles a shrine, which is quite impressive, too.
