Sailor
Maki-e Butterfly Fountain Pen |
|
|
The butterfly is an uplifting insect.
How many of us can see butterflies without being moved by their delicacy and
grace. |
|
The repetition of the
winged shape gives a sense of movement that we can all recognize. What other creature
can flit into our consciousness and make us aware of the fugitive nature of existence.
By creating a simple design Sailor has made the most of this motif. |

The pen is the same size and has the same converter/cartridge filling mechanism
as the 1911. It comes in a small softwood box with two extra cartridges and all
the papers.
Even the artist's signature conveys the fleeting exuberance
of this fountain pen.
| Notice
the many material surfaces, from simple fine gold flake lines to coarse amber
and shiny gold leaves to imbedded reflective pieces of abalone. 
|
| We have
the full range of available Sailor 21K nibs: EF, F, MF, M, B, Zoom and Music.
(The nib at left is the Sailor Broad, offering the writer an expressive tool.)The
Music nib is similar to a stub nib with considerable line width variation. |
