Namiki - Yukari Zodiac Dragon

The pen utilizes a cartridge/converter filling system, providing versatility and ease of use while maintaining a refined aesthetic. Every detail, from the lacquered body to the precision of the nib, embodies the harmony of traditional artistry and modern functionality.

Rooted in a legacy that began in the early 20th century, Namiki pens represent the pinnacle of Japanese craftsmanship.
