Pro Gear Slim Fountain Pen | Shikiori Sansui | Yuu-Tsubame | Limited Edition

Sailor's Shikiori Sansui series is inspired by the beauty of Japanese flora and fauna throughout the changing seasons of the year. The Yuu-Tsubame pen is named for swallows, which are said to be messengers of good fortune in the spring. Yuu-Tsubame is a translucent navy blue color with warm gold accents, and when you uncap the pen you'll find a surprise flash of delicate, pale mauve on the grip.

Sailor's Pro Gear Slim fountain pen is a comfortable mid-sized pen, small enough to fit in a pocket but long enough for comfortable everyday use. It's got a classic shape with a flat-top cap and a round barrel and grip, and comes with a converter and ink cartridges to get you started. Sailor makes their gold nibs in-house, and they're known for being exceptionally precise, with a unique feedback sensation. (Note that they run on the fine side, like other Japanese fountain pen nibs.)
