Pilot Custom Maple Wood Fountain Pen
The Pilot Custom Maple Wood Fountain Pen is crafted from Itaya Kaede (Japanese maple), a wood known for its fine grain and warm texture. Each piece is resin-treated to enhance durability while preserving the organic pattern of the wood. Over time, the color deepens subtly, developing a personal character with use. Perfect for writers who appreciate natural materials and timeless design.
Design and concept
This fountain pen features a body and cap made from Japanese Itaya Kaede, a maple wood stabilized with resin to retain its beauty while gaining structural strength. The smooth finish highlights the natural grain, and the classic gold trim provides a subtle yet elegant contrast. With its rounded shape and balanced proportions, this pen is both refined and tactile.
