Don't miss it.[PILOT, Japan's highest peak recognized by the world]In the mid-1900s, Ryosuke Namiki graduated from the Merchant Marine Academy and went on board a cargo ship as an engineer to handle overseas trade.As he came into contact with many imported products, he dreamed of ``creating something from Japan that could be proud of to the world.''Ryosuke Namiki, whose passion and inquisitive spirit bore fruit and became a professor, obtained a patent related to ink storage.In 1918, he established Namiki Seisakusho and began manufacturing and selling fountain pens. This is the beginning of flying around the world.After visiting Europe, he developed a method for manufacturing fountain pens using lacquer that prevents ebonite from deteriorating over time.He established the ``Kokukokai'' (Kokukokai) led by Gonroku Matsuda, who later became a Living National Treasure.The NAMIKI brand was quickly established and recognized around the world, including signing a sales agency agreement in Europe with the global brand Alfred Dunhill.Each Maki-e fountain pen is a masterpiece that takes over 3 months to complete and goes through as many as 130 steps.This is also one of the moments when Japan's traditional techniques and perfection were recognized around the world.Pilot fountain pens have given form to ideas that have surprised the world one after another, starting with the world's first capless fountain pen, ``capless''.While parts manufacturing is increasingly being outsourced, we are one of the few manufacturers in Japan, including Japan's three major manufacturers, that do everything from alloy casting in-house.In addition, we have developed a unique technology to mix and weld iridosmin balls, the metal used in pen points.Types of writing instruments: fountain pen Payment We accept PayPal only.
