Sailor Professional Gear Princess Raden - Princess Koto Fountain Pen

Sailor Professional Gear Princess Raden - Princess Koto Fountain Pen

In this series, there are Raden (mother-of-pearl) parts on the barrel and cap. Raden artwork is usually used for very expensive maki-e pens and it’s quite unique to put Raden on resins. The Shimmering Raden parts firs the theme of ‘Princess’ the elegant and dazzling.

Raden artwork can show several colors, depending on the type of shell or the technique used. This time, different shell colors were chosen for each design. Hope you can enjoy differences. Illustrations of the Yumi Maki-e also took a lot of trial & error. 

This Sailor Professional Gear Slim is inspired by the story of Princess Koto, a princess from Japanese fairytales. It features iconic motifs and colors from fairytale, intricately expressed with beautiful mother of pearl and yuubi maki-e on the barrel and cap.

Princess Koto:
A fallen Heike clan princess was washed ashore and saved by seaside villagers.
To thank them, she played a “koto” harp beautifully each day on the beach,
but soon fell ill and passed away. Ever since, the beach sand became musical sand,
and the beach was named “Beach of Koto”.
