* Description:
A handmade fountain pen by Eboya, the only one company in Japan that produces ebonite. Ebonite is a material made with natural rubber and sulfur. It is formed by a chemical reaction by mixing and heating those components at high temperatures and preassure. The result is a very resistant material with a very pleasant touch that feels so comfortable in your hand when writing.
The pens are made with Eboya original color marbled ebonite, which production requires very squilled craftsmanship. Each pen has their own unique texture, that can never be the same.
* Converters and cartridges:
Eboya's products are designed to be compatible with "International standard type" converters and cartridges. We recommend Pelikan converters and cartridges or long type cartridges.
An international standard type converter is included.
* Model:
立竹 ”RICCHIKU" means standing bamboos. This fountain pen was designed to express the beauty of bamboos, its strength and flexibility.
The shape is like a trunk of bamboo, with defined rings that hide the connexion between the cap and the body.
The blue-green color name is 風 "kaze", that means "wind", a calm bluish-green marbled with a black base.
Since it is molded using an extrusion method, a unique pattern may appear on the head of the cap. There are various shapes such as a star shape and a vortex shape. In addition, the shaft has a mysterious pattern that looks like overlapping annual rings.
