A new kind of writing tool from Kakimori, this desk pen pairs a ballpoint pen with its own stand, settling into any space like a sculptural object, ready to write at any moment. Inspired by a droplet of water, its form echoes a buoy floating on the sea — named in the hope that it might become a landmark for writing, quietly awaiting the writer in its place.
~ For gathering places ~
Crafted from solid Japanese cherry wood, its rich grain and natural warmth give the pen a gentle, inviting presence. Share it at the family table or place it on a communal desk — whether at home or in the office, it becomes a reflection of the space it inhabits.
The front cone is crafted in brass, finished with a clear coating to harmonise with the hues of Japanese cherry.
~ Where tradition and industry meet ~
The pen body and stand are crafted by a workshop in Kumano, Hiroshima Prefecture, with over 60 years of history producing wooden handles for Kumano brushes. The front cone is made by a small manufacturer in Tokyo, specialising in components for medical equipment and semiconductors.
A writing tool born from a meeting of traditional craft and industrial production, where workmanship is found in every detail.
~ Designed to endure ~
The pen comes fitted with the Schmidt easyFLOW 9000 medium refill. The slightly bolder line weight is well suited for signatures, while the low-viscosity oil-based ink delivers an effortlessly smooth writing experience.
Designed for easy replacement of the universal G2 refill, the pen ensures years of writing pleasure.
A desk pen with a gentle form that invites the touch. We hope it becomes a companion for your writing, always within easy reach.
