Introducing our exquisite Glass Dip Pen from Arita, Saga in Japan.

The glass dip pen features a quality finish that takes you into the rarefied world of fine ceramics. A pen that allows you to appreciate the inherent beauty of porcelain. Each glass dip pen is a genuine joy to take up and use. Something that will elevate your writing experiences, and create special moments, turning cherished thoughts into words.

Arita-yaki, Japan's oldest kiln, has been producing exquisite porcelain for over 400 years and is the oldest of its kind in Japan, tracing a true legacy of craftsmanship. The pens they produce incorporate functional beauty in traditional shapes, which are not only wonderful to use, but also add beautifully to your home as exquisite timeless ornaments.

One dip of ink can last a whole page, and each page can last a lifetime. The curve of the pen can help improve your grip and your skills in calligraphy. Letters written in ink flow so graciously onto the page that each can look almost print-like. It is extremely user-friendly and a perfect setting-off point for someone intrigued by calligraphy.

The HIZEN5 brand has been launched to support five different regions of pottery makers in the Saga prefecture in Japan - Karatsu, Takeo, Ureshino, Arita and Imari, all of which have distinctive and beautifully designed craft styles.
