Product Description
The Sailor King of Pen Yellow Mandarin 21K Fountain Pen showcases the elegance of traditional Japanese craftsmanship with a warm, vibrant finish inspired by the golden colour of ripe mandarin fruit. Its brilliant yellow Urushi lacquer highlights the beauty of one of Japan's most treasured artisanal techniques, giving the pen a rich depth and natural lustre that develops character over time.
Urushi lacquer is a rare natural material made from the sap of trees that grow only in East Asia. These trees require approximately 15 years to reach maturity before the sap can be carefully harvested and refined into lacquer. Skilled artisans hand-apply up to twelve layers of Urushi, allowing each layer to cure completely in a controlled, high-humidity environment before the next is added. This meticulous process can take up to two months, resulting in a durable, wear-resistant finish that protects the pen while enhancing its timeless beauty.
Fitted with Sailor's prestigious oversized 21K solid gold nib, the King of Pen delivers an exceptionally smooth writing experience with excellent ink flow and the distinctive tactile feedback that Sailor is renowned for. The Yellow Mandarin edition is a perfect combination of traditional artistry and exceptional writing performance, making it a treasured addition for collectors and fountain pen enthusiasts alike.
