Rei Fukui Wakasa-nuri Fountain pen by Sailor
The Rei Urushi series is a prestigious collection from the Sailor brand. The Fukui Wakasa-nuri model, designed by artist Atsushi Taniguchi, is one of the most sumptuous illustrations. Wakasa-nuri (marbling technique) is a traditional lacquering technique handed down from generation to generation in Obama, in Fukui prefecture. Obama, where wakasa-nuri originated, faces Wakasa Bay and offers a number of picturesque sites. Wakasa-nuri is a unique lacquering technique that involves creating patterns using shells, eggshells, pine leaves and other natural plants and trees. The fountain pen features motifs in red, yellow and orange on a black urushi lacquer background.
The body and cap are made from ebonite, while the section is made from resin. Unrivalled in its sobriety and refinement, this fountain pen features a cap whose perfect shape covers the object with flamboyant aestheticism. With no clip, it exudes extraordinary elegance. The central part is decorated with a stylised ring and a thin ring at the section. Both are gold-plated, as you’d expect from Sailor.
The nib:
Its nib, in superbly engraved 21-carat gold, is available in size M.
The fountain pen – lying on royal blue velvet – is presented in a magnificent paulownia wood box (nicknamed the “imperial tree”) surrounded by a solid ribbon.
You will receive your Rei Fukui Wakasa-nuri fountain pen by Sailor accompanied with its converter, two cartridges, a superb kimono fabric case and a polishing cloth.

Ce stylo est une MERVEILLE sur tous les plans. Il invite au voyage, à la rencontre avec son créateur. Assurément, celui-là a mis tout son amour et son savoir-faire dans son œuvre.
D’un poids parfait, le stylo prend naturellement sa place dans la main. Sa plume glisse sur le papier et « nous raconte une histoire » à son contact. J’ai autant de plaisir à le regarder qu’à écrire avec.
Il semble que vous soyez conquis… Nous en sommes très heureux !
Merci infiniment d’avoir exprimé votre satisfaction si joliment sur notre site, cher Yannick.
Vous avez acquis une pièce magistrale…
C’est mon deuxième Rei. Il est tout simplement sublime. Plume exceptionnelle comme toujours chez Sailor.
Un grand MERCI pour votre retour, cher Christian !
Nous sommes très heureux que ce deuxième Rei vous plaise tant. C’est vrai qu’il est sublime… 😉
