Sailor King of Pen Fountain Pen - Bespoke - Umesaki Naginata Togi Ebonite
The annual release of Sailor's ebonite series is always a special event, and the UMESAKI continues this tradition of exceptional craftsmanship and artistic inspiration. Each pen is meticulously crafted using the colored ebonite "Chirashi (scattering)" technique and features Sailor's signature 21K gold KOP Naginata Togi nib, known for its unparalleled writing experience.
The inspiration behind the UMESAKI is truly captivating. Its beautiful color theme is drawn from Hiroshige Utagawa's renowned ukiyo-e woodblock print, "Plum Estate in Kameido (Kameido Umeyashiki)." This masterpiece, created in Hiroshige's final year, gained international admiration, even inspiring Vincent van Gogh's "Flowering Plum Tree."
The UMESAKI pen beautifully translates this artistic vision into a tangible form. It features a delicate pink base, adorned with white Chirashi material to evoke the graceful plum blossoms. Gray and black accents represent the sturdy tree trunk and branches, creating a harmonious and visually rich design that captures the essence of Hiroshige's work.
Beyond its stunning aesthetics, the Sailor Naginata Togi Ebonite UMESAKI offers an exclusive writing experience. The ebonite body provides a pleasing fit in the hand, and the special Naginata Togi nib tip, crafted by only a handful of master artisans, allows for a broad range of writing angles and a smooth calligraphy style even with light pressure. Each pen also features the anchor emblem, a symbol of Sailor Pen's commitment to high quality, and is engraved with a unique serial number, making every piece truly one-of-a-kind.
This is a limited-quantity release, with only 500 pieces available globally (250 each for Japan and international markets), making it a truly special offering for pen collectors.
