Designed for both beauty and practicality, the cap can be securely posted on the barrel for balance while writing. It features a reliable Schmidt nib that delivers a smooth and precise writing experience. This Japanese pen is not just a writing tool—it is a true piece of art.

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.

Real art is defined by little details

"The sun in "sunrise cranes Yamanaka fountain pen" is one shade of red. The teensy bit of red on the cranes head is another shade all together. Only an artist would go to the trouble to make this distinction. That's why I think these Yamanaka pens are exceptional for the price."

Beauty and quality

"The Sunrise Cranes Yamanaka fountain pen is a work of art and a very smooth writer at an amazingly reasonable price. I really like the symbolism of the new beginning. I bought two pens, one for me and one for a dear friend. We both needed to get past a troublesome event in our lives, so the meaning of the design is perfect for us. Thank you for providing such great pens and great service as well."
