Sakura over the River Yamanaka Fountain Pen

Sale price$89.00 USD

Inspired by the gentle beauty of cherry blossoms drifting above a flowing river, this fountain pen reflects the refined aesthetics of Yamanaka craftsmanship. The soft pink sakura motifs and delicate gold details are applied using high-quality synthetic lacquer, a modern coating material carefully finished to achieve a smooth, glossy surface. This finish evokes the charm often associated with traditional Japanese lacquerware while offering durability suitable for everyday use.

The aluminum body fits comfortably in the hand and provides a well-balanced writing experience. Whether you are jotting down daily thoughts or writing a heartfelt message, this pen brings a quiet sense of elegance to each moment.

This pen is a lovely companion for many moments, from quiet journaling to writing thoughtful notes at work. Its gentle elegance brings a calm sense of beauty to everything you write.

Your pen arrives with one black ink cartridge, ready to write. When it runs low, or when you feel like a change of color, simply slip in a fresh one. Reach for a pack of Pelikan cartridges in four colors, or a set of S.T. Dupont cartridges in five. Prefer bottled ink? A compatible converter lets you fill from any bottle you love.
