This is a throwback photo from the Winter 2006 Pennant article "Collecting Japanese Pens" by Stan Klemanowicz. The pens are acrylic "skeleton" pens c. 1953-1956, left to right a clear pen by an unknown maker, a blue Platon pen, and a clear pen made for Ichijiku. Although today these pens might be called demonstrators, there are many examples of transparent and translucent acrylic pens from Japan from the 1950s indicating that they were regular production that featured this material. #pencollecting #fountainpen #ichijiku #platon #transparent #translucent #aerometric #japanesepens #penhero https://www.instagram.com/p/CFpx7m-j0NS/?igshid=1clexsi02prcx

After watching a recent video from @grav3yardgirl testing stationary from the @tokyopenshop and seeing the cute Disney Mildliners, I had to order some for myself, as well as the cute Pac-Man ghost pen holder 😁 #tokyopenshop #japanesepens #japanesestationery #mildliners #mildliner #disney #disneyprincess #mickeymouse #mickeyandfriends #disneymildliner #penholder #pacman #pacmanghost #grav3yardgirl #bunnymeyer https://www.instagram.com/p/CMnsvicJKJ9/?igshid=14091w04qau1x

今日、私は日本から2つのにもつをうけとりました!とてもうれしいです! それらは、かわいい日本のペンと本「さゆり」です。 えいごでは、"Memoirs of Geisha." というタイトルです。そして、日本語で書くと「さゆり」です。 私はすでに英語でその本を読みました。そして、今から日本語で読みます。たのしみです!これを見つけるのはとてもたいへんでした。でも、今あるので大丈夫です!すべてうまくいきました!この本は、おもっていたより小さかったですが、かわいいので大丈夫です。 私は、3月にペンをかいました。そして、5月に本をかいました。これらがとどくまで、かなり時間がかかりました。たぶん、コロナウイルスがげんいんだとおもいます。ペンと本はおなじ日にとどきました。とってもクールでべんりです!私は、とってもうれしいです!blippo shopとアマゾンの日本のうりてにかんしゃしています!すべて、とってもかわいいです。私はペンを使うことと、「さゆり」を読むことを楽しみにしています!いぇい! -English- Today, my two packages from Japan arrived!I’m so happy! I got cute Japanese pens and the book, “Sayuri”. In English it’s, “Memoirs of a Geisha.” AND! “Sayuri” is written in Japanese! I already read it in English. So now, I can also read it in Japanese. I’m so excited! It was really hard to find. Ugh... but it’s okay because I have it now! ^^ It’s all good! The book is a lot smaller than I thought, but that’s okay, because it’s cute. I bought the pens in March, and the book in May. They took a long time to get here. Probably because the corona virus. The pens and the book both arrived on the same day! It was so cool and very convenient! I’m very very happy!! Thank you so much to “Blippo shop” and to the Japanese seller on Amazon!! Everything is soo cute! I look forward to using the pens and look forward to reading, “Sayuri”! Yay! #japan #blippo #memoirsofageisha #sayuri #package #japanesejournaling #Japanesepens #japanesepencils (at Gresham, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDnQX1iBVaq/?igshid=1t0ej312rtb2p

Uncle Michael visits Manila!
Last week I had the honor of meeting up with Uncle Michael for an impromptu late night pen meet organized by Leigh. After seven years of being active in the fountain pen community, I finally got to see and touch not just one, but two Hakase pens, a brand that has long been on my grail pen wish list.
Uncle Michael, also known as Michael Chen, is an award winning photographer and also a well-loved member of the Taipei pen community. He was in town for Art Fair Philippines and had a bit of free time post-dinner on a Friday night to meet and talk over a pot of tea about his love for collecting handmade Japanese pens. He is active in the FPN community, see his post here on his journey to acquire Hakase pens, here to read more about Ohashido pens and here to read about his trip to the Omas factory before they shut down.
He had brought with him a few of his favorite pens, mostly recent acquisitions from the last 3-5 years or so. I was familiar with Hakase Pens from Tottori and Ohashido Pens from Sendai but this was the first time for me to hear of (and see) Ban-ei pens, particularly Ban-ei pens whose nibs bore the mark of “GK” or Kabutogi Ginjiro, known in Japan as one of the most famous nib makers in the postwar Japan era. Pretty intense stuff. Post-dinner meeting, a quick googling session led me to read more about Ban-ei and how later on they went to collaborate with Danitrio. Beautiful pens, beautiful lacquer work, stellar nibwork.
The Ohashido pen Uncle Michael brought had a unique teal-colored lacquer tone and 18K hardware adorning the cap section.
The Hakase pens were built using striated horn material personally selected by Uncle Michael and Mr Yamamoto. More about them on his post here. One of these days I too will make a trek to Tottori to pick out my Hakase pen. One day. <3
On a side note, I asked him about one of his pen wraps, which turns out was sewn by a lady known as Mrs. Pilot, the wife of Mr. Pilot, a retired Pilot Pen employee who frequents Tokyo pen shows selling NOS Pilot pens. I fell in love with its padded fluffy casing and simple but well made stitching, a wonderfully sewn piece that you could feel was made with love and care.
It was past 1AM when we parted ways, a delightful way to end a busy weekend that left us thinking about our next grail pen project.

Peeking in my art suplies I just notice that these are my two last Kuretake pens, my favourite brand of japanase pen. Since Lebrilope closed his online store It's dificult and very expensive to buy them here in Spain. So let's enjoy them while they last - Echando un vistazo a mis cachivaches de dibujo acabo de darme cuenta que solo me quedan dos rotuladores Kuretake, mi marca favorita de rotuladores japoneses. Desde que el Lebrilope cerró su tienda online es muy difícil y muy caro conseguirlos en España así que habrá que disfrutarlos mientras duren #drawing #dibujando #sketch #sketchbook #cuadernodedibujo #kuretake #kuretaquepen #japanesepen #ink #tinta #vikingos #vikings #instadraw #instadrawing https://www.instagram.com/p/B6NUyvoqQVm/?igshid=i4jro8pdvxw

Sometimes, although very rarely and maybe intentional, my life comes together and is aesthetic af.

Popura eyedropper fountain pen from the early to mid c1930s. Gold plated clip and 14 karat gold nib are stamped POPURA. Nib is also stamped TOKYO, NIPPON. Cap and barrel carving represents Heian era coins using the kamakura bori technique. Urushi is applied in layers over an ebonite cap and barrel and the design is then cut into the finished pen. The Heian period was from 794 to 1185 and named after the ancient capital of Kyoto. Buddhism, Taoism and other Chinese influences flourished in Japan during this time. About 5 1/4 inches long. Loaned for photos by Stan Klemanowicz.
