Thanks very much for looking at our listing for this Nakaya Portable Writer Kikyo Ruthenium Fountain Pen, which comes with its wooden presentation box (including outer) and pen kimono. The pen has been carefully used and is presented in overall excellent condition.
Nakaya require no introduction and if you’ve got this far then likely you’ll be familiar with their wonderful writing instruments. We're huge fans of the colour Kikyo, with it's deep purple finish, which works perfectly with the ruthenium trim.
The pen is hand-turned from solid ebonite rod stock, which then has multiple layers of lacquer applied, before finally being finished with natural urushi resin.
The pen is fitted with an older style 'Nakata' 14k elastic music nib and it’s a cartridge / converter pen, so your choice here is bottled ink.
The important details are as follows...
Condition: Excellent
Box: Nakaya
Nib: 'Nakata' Elastic Music Nib
With every pen that we sell we provide a card that includes the manufacturer, model, serial / limitation number and date it was purchased from us. We do this because our customers like to have documentation showing that it’s been purchased from a trusted seller. As the Financial Times said recently in their How To Spend It publication - "izods is an e-cache of ultra fine fountain pens".
