series is a collaboration between ystudio and Kohei Murata who applied
this rare material on ystudio's pen with delicate and high-skilled
traditional technique.
Fountain Pen The design idea of ystudio Desk Fountain pen originally comes
from classical fountain pen. People nowadays can take writing as a ritual
to set our minds at ease. The body of ystudio desk fountain pen is made of
solid brass. The classic hexagonal shape design provides a stable way to
grip. You’ll always write steady and smooth. The pen stand is also made
of solid brass. The proper design to connect pen and stand could let you
pick up the pen easily and stably at the same time.Trendy life is not
about how much fine goods you collect but how well you live with them.
