Platinum Izumo Iro-Urushi Fountain Pen - Budou Nezu (Grape Gray)
Introducing the Platinum Izumo Iro-Urushi Fountain Pen, featuring the stunning colors of Aitetsu Iro (Iron Blue) and Budou Nezu (Grape Gray). Part of Platinum’s latest Izumo series, this collection draws inspiration from the captivating luster and vibrant hues of traditional Japanese lacquerware.
Wajima Urushi Technique
Each pen in the Iro-Urushi collection is meticulously crafted by skilled artisans using the time-honored Wajima urushi lacquer technique. The production process involves applying layer upon layer of lacquer, followed by careful polishing to achieve a smooth and radiant finish. This labor-intensive journey spans at least three months, showcasing the artisans' expertise, endurance, and dedication to their craft.
Timeless Colors
The Iro-Urushi collection features captivating colors that were immensely popular during the Edo period and frequently appear in ukiyo-e artworks.
18k Gold President Nib
This luxurious fountain pen is equipped with an exquisite 18K gold President nib, finished with rhodium for the first time in this series.
Limited Availability
Due to the recent Noto Earthquake in January, which caused substantial damage to Wajima and many lacquer artisans' studios, the production of these pens is currently extremely limited. We sincerely hope for the swift recovery of the artisans and their craft.
Elevate your writing experience with the Platinum Izumo Iro-Urushi Fountain Pen—a perfect blend of artistry and functionality, ideal for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
About the Platinum Izumo
The Platinum Izumo fountain pens were launched in 2010 and were named after the city of Izumo, the birthplace of Platinum Pen founder, Shunichi Nakata.

It comes in a variety of finishes such as urushi, wood and woven bamboo. Its classic cigar shape and substantial size certainly make a statement!
The Platinum Izumo has an 18kt gold nib and uses a Platinum converter or Platinum ink cartridges.
