Sailor has thoughtfully chosen four seasonal waka poems from the Kokin Wakashu (compiled in 905) and the Shin Kokin Wakashu (compiled in 1205), printing them onto fountain pens. Waka is a traditional Japanese poetry form that elegantly expresses nature and emotions. These poems often focus on themes like the changing seasons and love, using simple yet deeply meaningful words.
The Autumn edition features a waka by Sarumaru Dayu, evoking the deep, reflective quiet of the changing season: “Deep in the remote mountains, hearing a deer cry while stepping through fallen maple leaves fills one’s heart with the melancholy of autumn.” Made from PMMA resin with intricate Yuubi Maki-e decoration, this Overseas Exclusive model embodies the elegance of falling leaves and crisp air. The 14K gold nib and matching gold IP trim accentuate its warmth and nostalgic charm, offering an expressive, fluid writing experience that captures the soul of autumn itself.
This pen is available in Fine (F), Medium-Fine (MF), and Medium (M) nib sizes, and is also available in three other seasonal designs: Spring, Summer, and Winter. Enhance your pen collection or indulge in the beauty of Japanese poetry with this artful celebration of autumn’s grace.
