NEW! Clipless Design
Shikkō Fountain Pen
Move On
Camellia (White)
A white camellia blooms with quiet dignity on deep vermilion urushi.
With every shift of light, the lacquer’s glow returns softly from within, while the white petals reveal delicate shadows—calm, gentle, and serene. A touch of gold at the flower’s center becomes a subtle sparkle, adding refined elegance to the whole.
On the lustrous deep-green leaves, tiny accents shimmer like dewdrops.
Glamorous yet pure—beautiful, and somehow tranquil.
A pen that stays close to your everyday words, gently “centering” your writing time.
The highest level of craftsmanship passed down by Wajima artisans—made into a pen meant for daily use.
Even after the New Year’s Day earthquake of 2024 and the September floods, we continue to move forward—“Move On.”
In the world of Wajima-nuri, there is no other urushi craftsman who can apply this Shin-nuri finish.
Design & Supervision
Supervised by Kōzō Yamazaki, Organizer of the Kobe Pen Show and Representative of the YY Pen Club.

About the Shippō Pattern
Shippō is an auspicious motif of interlocking circles that connect endlessly, symbolizing harmony, completeness, and meaningful bonds.
It carries the wish that “the connections between people are as precious as seven treasures.”
