Introducing the Burgundy Pilot Ishime, a model of Japanese artistic technique.
Pilot Ishime pens are excellent fountain pens given rave reviews by fountain pen enthusiasts for their elegant colors, smooth writing ability, and textured look. The Ishime is a hand-lacquered fountain pen with a 18kt gold nib. The word “Ishime” roughly translates to “stone path”, which refers to the design hand-drawn into the cap and barrel's wet lacquer. This Maki-e technique is called “Kawari-nuri," meaning “unique painting.” Urushi, Japanese lacquer, is textured like stones on the Ishime's deep red body. The Ishime comes in fine, medium, and broad.
