Nagasawa Odyssey Snow White Fountain Pen
The Nagasawa Odyssey Snow White is a limited-edition fountain pen inspired by the “Pen Style 2005 Mine,” a model admired by writers who appreciate calm, focus and the quiet rhythm of handwriting. Designed to offer excellent balance and stability, it is ideal for those who prefer a discreet pen with no external logos—recognized only by users who understand the craftsmanship behind its 14K gold nib and its refined writing feel.
The white body symbolizes the beginning of an intellectual journey, a clean and silent starting point full of possibilities. Antique gold metal components add a soft, mature glow that contrasts elegantly with the PMMA resin. Unlike many modern pens, the Odyssey Snow White carries no external branding on the barrel or cap; its discretion is intentional. Those who know, recognize it instantly.
Design and concept
Its smooth, rounded silhouette offers comfort during long writing sessions. The clip and metallic end pieces add structure without overwhelming the design, promoting an experience centered on writing itself. This is a pen meant to be discovered slowly, appreciated for its balance and quiet presence.
Functionality and filling system
The Odyssey uses a cartridge-converter system (converter included) and features a 14K gold nib engraved with Nagasawa’s signature weathervane. Available in F, M and B, it adapts well to different writing styles, from precise notes to expressive long-form writing.
To fully enjoy the smoothness of the nib and the ink’s behavior, we recommend pairing this pen with high-quality Japanese paper. Options such as the Ginkouka pad or the Midori MD Paper highlight shading, saturation and the Odyssey Snow White’s characteristic ink flow.
Package contents
Includes the Nagasawa Odyssey Snow White fountain pen, converter, spare cartridge and, at Inktraveler, we include a complimentary ink bottle so you can enjoy the pleasure of writing from the very first moment. A limited edition for writers who appreciate pens that reveal their personality quietly, through balance and feel.

Brand history and philosophy
Nagasawa has been closely linked to the writing culture of Kobe since the late nineteenth century. Rather than ornamental excess, the brand favors thoughtful design, durability and comfort—qualities that have shaped its long collaborations with Japanese manufacturers and artisans. The Odyssey series reflects this philosophy: a refined, understated writing instrument made for those who value the quiet pleasure of handwriting.
"A blank page is the beginning of every journey; the pen simply points the way."
