About us
Inktraveler is an independent online store founded in Spain in 2012, specialising in fountain pens, inks and Japanese stationery. We were created with the aim of introducing a different way of understanding writing to the European audience—one that pays close attention to materials, use and the passage of time. Our work consists of selecting, contextualising and offering writing tools with meaning, most of them originating in Japan.
Specialists in handwriting and Japanese stationery
We are not a general stationery shop. Inktraveler is a specialised stationery store focused on handwriting and the objects that make it possible. We work with leading Japanese brands such as Traveler’s Company (Traveler’s Notebook), Sailor, Platinum, Namiki and Pilot, as well as with technical papers designed specifically for fountain pen use, including Life, Midori and Tsubame.
Our selection follows functional and technical criteria. We value ink flow stability, paper performance, pen ergonomics and the coherence between form and use. Every product added to our catalogue has been tested, documented and chosen for a specific reason.
Technical criteria and knowledge of the craft
We understand writing as a physical and reflective experience. Paper weight and porosity, ink behaviour or nib adjustment are not minor details, but elements that directly influence the act of writing. For this reason, we collaborate with nibmeisters—specialists in nib adjustment and customisation—and with Japanese artisan workshops, ensuring a high level of quality and consistency in every piece.
Direct connection with Japan and international service
From our base in Spain, we serve Europe and international customers. We maintain a direct and ongoing relationship with manufacturers and distributors in Japan, which allows us to access limited editions, models rarely found outside the Japanese market and hard-to-find pieces. This direct connection ensures authenticity, traceability and expert advice built on years of experience.
A conscious way of writing
Since 2012, we have defended handwriting as a conscious practice in contrast to digital immediacy. We believe in well-made, durable and honest objects, designed to accompany the user for years. Inktraveler is not just an online store, but a reference point for those seeking specialised Japanese stationery and writing tools chosen with technical, cultural and functional criteria.
