Sailor Pro Gear Slim Shikiori Grateful Crane Light Blue
The Sailor Pro Gear Slim Shikiori Grateful Crane Light Blue fountain pen is part of Sailor's new Shikiori Japanese Fairy Tale Series.
The Pro Gear Slim Shikiori Grateful Crane Light Blue is inspired by the many traditional Japanese legends and folk tales surrounding this elegant bird. One of the most famous of these is Tsura Nyobu, the story of a man who rescues a crane which then transforms into human form and becomes his wife - indie-rock fans may recognize this story as the basis for the song "The Crane Wife" by The Decemberists.
The Shikiori Japanese Fairy Tale series is a follow-up to the extremely popular Four Seasons series. Each special edition pen features a special glimmer effect in the cap and barrel, also familiar from other special edition pens such as the Purple Cosmos and Red Supernova.
Sailor Pro Gear Slim fountain pens utilize a convenient cartridge-converter fill system - any bottled ink can be used when the pen is fitted with the provided converter, and Sailor brand disposable ink cartridges can also be utilized. A special presentation box which includes the converter and a starter pack of two ink cartridges is also included. We are an authorized Sailor dealer.
