Brand History and Philosophy
Founded in Hiroshima in 1911 by Kyugoro Sakata, Sailor represents a legacy of precision and excellence in fountain pen making. From its early days producing ebonite bodies and gold nibs, the company has upheld a tradition of hand-assembled instruments rooted in Japanese craftsmanship. Even during wartime, Sailor continued to produce pens, earning global respect for its dedication to quality.
In the following decades, Sailor introduced PMMA resin and revolutionized nib technology with the introduction of 14K and later the “Naginata” nibs, which allow expressive variations depending on writing angle. The Professional Gear series reflects this spirit—combining elegance, ergonomics and functionality.
Today, Sailor pens are recognized worldwide for their meticulous detail, refined aesthetics, and performance. Each stroke with a Sailor nib connects you to over a century of tradition, making it more than a pen—it’s a writing experience.
