Nakaya Portable Writer Heki-tamenuri
Dressed in brownish-green tamenuri and a smooth, continuous shape, the Portable Writer in Heki-tamenuri is one of the classic Nakaya pen designs. The curving expanse of the Portable size showcases the layered Heki-tamenuri finish, which is further accented by the gold-plated clip.

As with all hand-painted Tame-nuri pens, the colors will vary slightly from pen to pen - no two will ever be exactly the same. With time, the outer dark layer will grow more transparent, allowing the Heki under-layer to show through. The word tame in Japanese means little pool of water and nuri means painting. So the pen's heki green surface is seen through the transparent layer, a "little pool of water".
A gold pocket clip brings out this writing instrument's warmth color and also serves as a built-in roll stopper.
Nakaya pens ship in a solid softwood shipping box decorated with Japanese Kanji script and lined with decorative rice paper. A fabric pen "kimono" and starter box of Platinum brand cartridges are also included, making this pen a lovely presentation item. Sensible and elegant packaging has long been a hallmark of the Nakaya brand.
Unless requested otherwise, each pen or nib you purchase from us will be carefully examined, tested, and optimized for your personal writing characteristics before it ships.
