The Sailor Susutake Bamboo Fountain Pen is a rare and highly collectible writing instrument crafted from naturally aged bamboo that has developed its distinctive deep brown color through decades of exposure to smoke. Each piece retains the natural bamboo nodes, grain, and unique textures, giving every pen its own individual character and timeless beauty.
This particular pen is equipped with a 21K Cross Point nib, personally handcrafted and ground by the late master nib craftsman Nobuyoshi Nagahara. Its distinctive cross-layered construction allows for remarkable line variation, producing broad, expressive strokes at lower writing angles and finer lines when held more upright.
The combination of rare Susutake bamboo, traditional Japanese craftsmanship, and Nobuyoshi Nagahara’s legendary specialty nib makes this an exceptional collector’s piece, reflecting both natural beauty and Sailor’s remarkable nib-making heritage.
Important Notes
As Susutake is a natural bamboo material, each fountain pen has unique bamboo nodes, grain patterns, coloration, and surface characteristics. Natural variations, minor marks, and irregularities are inherent features of the material and should not be considered manufacturing defects.
