If simplicity is the highest form of elegance, this is it. A Nakaya fountain pen achieves greatness by virtue of its streamlined design, excellent materials, flawless surface and saturated colors. Shown here is the Portable (shorter) Cigar (No Clip) fountain pen in Kikyo (Blue).

This Nakaya fountain pen is made of hard rubber and coated with Urushi, a material made from the sap of a Japanese lacquer tree. The process of collecting the Urushi (sap) and applying many layers of lacquer to this fountain pen is a time-intensive process.

This is a full sized pen with exquisite balance.

 

The Kikyo surface is created layer upon layer by carefully building up and sanding the Urushi lacquer. The result is a fountain pen with a deep lustrous sheen and compelling blue color.


The Nakaya nib, imprinted Nakata, the family name of the manufacturer is made of solid 14K gold. Each of these nibs is suitable for our customization to extra flexible. The medium and broad tip can be customized into cursive italic, stub or oblique points.
