Preppy Wa Modern Maki-e 3rd Edition Fountain Pen | Tsubaki

After the worldwide success of it's predecessor, the Preppy Wa Modern Maki-e returns with a new limited edition for 2025.

Like the previous version, the body is decorated with six traditional and elegant Japanese patterns using a unique Japanese technique called modern Maki-e. Each pattern has a special auspicious meaning, and you can choose your favorite one based on the design and meaning.

The Tsubaki, or camellia flower, is a symbol of elegance and resilience in Japanese culture. Known for its simple yet striking beauty, the camellia blooms gracefully even in colder seasons, representing strength and refinement. This pen’s delicate Tsubaki pattern captures that enduring charm, offering a subtle touch of nature’s grace and traditional artistry in every stroke.
