Experience the quiet elegance of twilight with the Moonlit Cloud Glass Dip Pen, a creation born from our collaboration with Japanese glass artist Hideki Hosaka. Inspired by the fleeting beauty of moonlight passing through drifting clouds, this pen brings a sense of serenity and wonder to every stroke.
Made from fine borosilicate glass, its body shimmers with tiny bubbles that resemble distant starlight scattered across the night sky. The design began as a sketch by Sayuri (Co-founder of Komorebi) and was refined through countless trials until it captured the perfect balance of light and form. Every curve and hue reflects not only craftsmanship but also a deep sense of artistry.
Hosaka, the founder of Flame Works, has long infused his creations with imagination and passion. From early dreams in high school to producing iconic works such as the Magic Rose from Beauty and the Beast and the Spear of Longinus from Evangelion, his artistry has touched many stories. That same spirit lives within the Moonlit Cloud pen, transforming it into more than a writing tool but a vessel of creative inspiration.
Whether journaling, writing letters, or sketching under the soft glow of a lamp, this pen accompanies moments of reflection with gentle grace. Its smooth glass nib flows effortlessly across paper and welcomes experimentation with a variety of inks, inviting you to turn everyday writing into a poetic ritual.
