Pilot Ishime Medium Tip Fountain Pen Burgundy

Pilot Ishime pens are excellent fountain pens given rave reviews by fountain pen enthusiasts for their transparent look, elegant colors, and smooth writing ability. The Ishime is a hand-lacquered fountain pen with a 14kt gold nib. The word “Ishime” roughly translates to “stone path”, referring to the design on the cap and barrel, which is hand-drawn into its wet lacquer. This Maki-e technique is called “Kawarinuri", meaning “unique painting”. Urushi, Japanese lacquer, is textured like stones on the Ishime's deep blue body. The Ishime comes in fine, medium, and broad.
