Description

Discover the extraordinary Raden Series of Pilot's Capless fountain pens, proudly presented by Namiki, the flagship brand of Japan's Pilot Pen Company.

These remarkable pens feature traditional Japanese craftsmanship, showcasing the intricate raden technique. Each barrel is adorned with carefully applied, multi-colored abalone shell fragments, which are meticulously sealed with ten layers of hand-applied lacquer. The result is a breathtaking display of Maki-e artistry, available in three exclusive designs.

Originally launched in 1964 to commemorate the Tokyo Olympics, the Pilot Capless Fountain Pen embodies the perfect fusion of luxury and technology, catering to the refined tastes of fountain pen connoisseurs.

With a simple push-button mechanism located at the end of the cap, the nib elegantly extends and retracts. When closed, an ingenious airtight seal prevents the nib from drying out, ensuring a hassle-free writing experience.

Each pen is elegantly presented in a wooden Namiki gift box. The fountain pen is equipped with a rhodium-plated 18k gold nib, available in fine, medium, or broad sizes, and is compatible with Pilot ink cartridges or a converter for bottled ink. An ink converter is included with the pen.

Indulge in the captivating beauty and unparalleled functionality of the Raden Series Capless fountain pen, a true testament to the timeless artistry of Japan.

Good deal on Namiki Galaxy

These pens have risen dramatically in the USA, making sourcing them overseas a better financial proposition. ChatGpT alerted me to this store, and after thoroughly checking them out, I decided to purchase. The pen arrived quickly, though I would suggest they drop DHL as a carrier, as they particularly suck at deliveries to my home. I was also a bit surprised that no cartridge was included with the pen. However, overall the transaction succeeded, the pen arrived in perfect condition, works well (luckily I had a cartridge), the only caveat was the $67 in customs duty extracted by our idiot President to satisfy his misguided political extortion. Overall, I saved $280 over a comparable American retailer.

Pilot Capless Urushi Galaxy

The pen is exactly as specified and it came with all the necessary accessories. It’s even more beautiful than I imagined. The F nib writes perfectly — smooth, light, and very pleasant — and the pen feels perfectly balanced in hand.

I also want to say that the order handling and communication were truly top-notch. The parcel was extremely well protected and arrived to me very quickly.
