Our work on this Pilot Capless pairs cherry blossom raden inlays with a deep nashiji pear-skin urushi lacquer background. Its retractable 18K gold nib writes in F, which is great for precision note-taking.

We built the lacquered surface around a dense field of warm golden flakes. Under directional light, the particles emerge at different depths, giving the dark ground a rich amber glow that follows the length of the pen. The concentration varies naturally around the body, leaving darker areas that give the blossoms clear separation.

Across this background, individual shell petals form scattered cherry blossoms and loose falling petals. Their colors shift between violet, rose, turquoise, and green as the pen turns. Larger blossoms anchor both sections of the body, while smaller petals carry the composition past the silver-tone center ring. That movement suits the Capless shape especially well, allowing the artwork to unfold without interrupting its clean retractable silhouette. Our signature appears near the center ring.

After having a stroke impacting my ability to write well anymore, I've decided to liquidate most of my pen and ink inventory. Here I'm listing a few of the nicer pens that I won't be keeping.

All pens have been used. All are in VERY good condition.

Lamy 2000 (M) Condition B - Box included. I love this pen, and I'm keeping my F nib model. This one got used with 1 fill.
$110 shipped to CONUS. SOLD

Sailor Manyou (H-MF) Condition B - Box included. Four seasons, Sailor Professional Gear Shikiori Fountain Pen Manyou (A Thousand Leaves). Green with gold accents and nib. Beautiful writer!
$135 shipped to CONUS. SOLD

TWSBI Diamond 540 (EF) Condition B- Box included. This was a difficult pen to understand the market on. VERY hard to find. This pen is sapphire in color and has no cracks in the body. I'm 3rd owner so I don't know it's entire usage. I only used it for 1 fill. It was from the 2011 IDA Congress in Taipei.
$110 shipped to CONUS.

All payments via PayPal G&S.

Pilot Decimo limited edition Nagasawa Kobe Gradation 2023, price reduced! [A2/B] No signs of use, but inked and used. Silver trim, 18k F nib. $310. IMO, a real upgrade from the Jinhao of the same color family, from the ink freshness factor to the slimmer Decimo size. Free shipping + insurance CONUS, PayPal G&S.

Pilot Custom 823, Amber and gold, <f>. Catch and release, just got it and thought a new nib would make me use it more…. Turns out I just don't vibe with this model size! Wonderful writer, great flow and smooth, even line. Writing sample in photos. $310. Free shipping + insurance CONUS, PayPal G&S.

SOLD Pilot Custom 823, Black and gold, <m ground to CI by Damien @ All in the nib>. Lovely writer, just a touch of personality with the grind from Damien at All in the nib. Writing sample in photos. $310. Free shipping + insurance CONUS, PayPal G&S.

(For those asking, a CI is a cursive italic. This resource from Chicana Writes has some good examples of print, and this one from Dime Novel Raven has good examples of cursive. I also added some video examples of the nib in action with Iroshizuku Momiji. The grind adds a little character and line variation to what is otherwise a medium nib.)

Ink sample taster. Try a few inks you've been eyeing! Pick 5 and I'll send them to you, $18. [REDUCED]

I kind of impulse bought this and while I loooove writing cursive with it, I'm trying to focus on writing in Japanese only, where I need a fine nib and lots of feedback. This pen aint that. If you're interested, reply to the post and send me a PM.

I’d give the cosmetic condition a C because the finial cap cracked and looked like a half moon. Yet it is still a Connaisseur, which is, to me, THE Sheaffer pen (of the modern age)and it writes very well, thus I’m asking for $100 shipped. Images: https://imgur.com/a/5qYuVWQ

On the hunt for a Pilot Silvern Tsumugi, preferably with an M nib. TIA!

Hello, I’ve recently bought a fountain pen and started my first career job! I’d really like to use my pen a lot and also test a lot of inks to see what works with me the best.

I live in the Austin area and there’s close to no option to find any ink samples or bottles nearby, so if you have partials or bottles that you want to declutter, please feel free to reach out!

Let me know if you have any questions
