Namiki Sterling Silver Samurai Fountain Pen

Hand-wrought sterling silver enhanced with beautifully etched traditional Japanese designs lend elegance and grace to each piece in Pilot- Namiki's Sterling Collection.  The simplicity of the pen's design is contrasted against the opulence of the precious material from which it is crafted, sterling silver being a decadent while still restrained precious metal.  The samurai is a historical and cultural symbol of Japan, and has come to represent a variety of values and ideals, including honor, loyalty, discipline, and strength. As a symbol on a pen, the samurai represent these qualities in the context of writing and creativity. In particular, the samurai's dedication to discipline and mastery may be relevant to the art of writing, as both require practice, patience, and attention to detail. The distinctive style of this fountain pen is complemented by an 18-karat gold plated medium nib. As with the entire Sterling Silver collection, it is refillable for continued use with a cartridge
