Sailor King of Pens Sakura Nagare Fountain Pen

Sailor King of Pens Sakura Nagare Limited Edition Fountain Pen

The Sailor Sakura Nagare Limited Edition Fountain Pen is a unique design by Maki-e Artist Tadashi Nakamura depicting Sakura – that is, cherry blossom – floating on a stream.

Based on the Profit shape, the Sailor Sakura Nagare fountain pen is of decorated in the maki-e (sprinkled picture) style.  The body of the pen is coated with lacquer, and the design built up by several applications of tiny flakes of coloured enamels, mother of pearl, and gold dust. This is allowed to dry, is smoothed, resin reapplied and then further decorations applied and finally sealed in place with a further coat of lacquer. As each pen is made by hand, no two of them are the same.

The beautiful cap and barrel of this pen are complemented by the beautiful Sailor nib in 21 carat gold which, as with all pens based on the King of Pen, is available if Medium or Broad.
