Move on, Edazakura Aka Fountain Pen * Yurie

Yurie Style fountain pens capture the tender beauty of Japan. Rather than making a bold statement, they feature gentle designs crafted by long-established ateliers and craftsmen in the Wajima region.

 There is a quiet delicacy to a Yurie pen. Subtle brushstrokes sweep over perfect base layers, rims softly reveal hints of underlayers, and every composition feels timeless. They embody the ancient Japanese art of urushi—crafted to premium standards, with the steady hand of the skilled artisan still clearly visible.

 Beneath the art, the pen bodies are crafted by Eboya, makers of arguably the finest engineered ebonite pens in the world. Every component is meticulously shaped to meet the exacting demands of a fine writing instrument. The Shikko Series was specifically designed for Yurie fountain pens under the supervision of Mr Kozo Yamazaki.

 While Yurie pens lean toward a smaller profile, they post comfortably. The design allows you to cap the back without risking the delicate urushi lacquer. In my own experience, after two years of daily writing with my Akazakura, the body remains as beautiful as the day I got it.
