Sakura Yamanaka Fountain Pen

Charming and elegant, the Sakura Yamanaka Fountain Pen is a radiant example of Japanese pens. It blends beauty, tradition, and craftsmanship.
With blooming sakura flowers across its body, this fountain pen captures cherry blossoms’ fleeting, delicate beauty. These blossoms are a beloved symbol of renewal and celebration in Japan.

Maeju has long pioneered synthetic lacquerware, working closely with workshops to make Japanese lacquer more accessible. This collaboration created an affordable yet refined method that replicates the look and feel of true lacquerware. A three-dimensional finish adds luxurious depth, making the Sakura Yamanaka Fountain Pen stand out in Japanese stationery.

Designed for beauty and practicality, the cap can be securely posted for a balanced and comfortable writing experience. It features a reliable Schmidt nib for smooth and precise performance.
This Japanese pen is more than a tool—it is a true work of art.

Each pen is beautifully packaged in an elegant gift box—ideal for birthdays, anniversaries, or special milestones. As a tribute to Japanese craftsmanship, this piece will delight collectors, writers, and lovers of thoughtful design.

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.

Maeju: Crafting with Lacquer Mastery

Maeju Shikki, officially known as Maeju Shikki Co., Ltd., is a long-established Japanese lacquerware maker founded in 1939 in Yamanaka Onsen, Japan. Located in Kaga City, Ishikawa Prefecture, Yamanaka has been renowned for over 400 years as a center of lacquerware production, especially for its exceptional woodturning techniques (rokuro-biki). The lacquerware from this region is beloved for its graceful forms, deep, lustrous red and black tones, and smooth texture that fits comfortably in the hand.

Growing alongside this rich tradition, Maeju played a key role in elevating Yamanaka to become Japan’s top lacquerware-producing region. With over 80 years of history, Maeju has earned its place as a prestigious name in Yamanaka lacquerware, dedicated to sharing the beauty of Japanese lacquer with the world.
