Esterbrook x BUNGUBOX Estie Fountain Pen - Kachofugetsu Flower (Limited Edition)
Esterbrook is thrilled to unveil the another stunning collaboration with renowned Japanese artist, Kaoru, of BUNGUBOX.
Crafted from beautiful semi-translucent crackled pink acrylic, the pen features gold accents and a signature gold plated nib bearing the Japanese character for "flower". The unique design allows you to see through to the printed converter, which is adorned with its own pretty pink blossoms. We offer you this beautiful "flower" that will never fade away.
In Japan, there are many beautiful words that have been used since ancient times to describe the beauty of nature. "Kachofugetsu" (Flower - Bird - Wind - Moon) is one of them. Inspired by this concept, the Kachofugetsu Flower Fountain Pen captures the essence of the Someiyoshino cherry tree in full bloom, with its barrel adorned with delicate blossoms.
With a #6 JoWo German gold-plated steel nib and Esterbrook’s renowned cushioned inner cap system, this pen promises a smooth writing experience. The Estie fills via standard international cartridge or converter (included).
We do our best to photograph the pens to show how they will appear in person, but due to the nature of this unique material, there will be variation in the patterns and colors seen here. This adds an element of uniqueness to the pen, with no two patterns being exactly the same. We cannot honor special requests.
