Brand history and philosophy

Founded in Hiroshima in 1911 by Kyugoro Sakata, Sailor has built a reputation for meticulous detail and a passion for writing. From its early mastery of gold nib production and ebonite bodies to adopting advanced PMMA resin materials and creating innovations like the “Naginata” nib, Sailor has always embraced excellence. Even during challenging times such as World War II, the brand continued to maintain its standards and dedication.

Today, Sailor is respected worldwide for its exquisite limited editions with maki-e lacquer and ebonite engravings, as well as professional fountain pen series that combine beauty and functionality. Every line you write, every shimmering gold or silver accent on its nibs, is a testament to a tradition of innovation that invites you to be part of Sailor’s story.

“The beauty of writing blossoms in every season.”
