Sailor Special Edition Yaku Sugi Fountain Pen

The Sailor Yaku-Sugi fountain pen has the  scent of the Yaku Cedar wood that makes it unique. This fountain pen was beautifully crafted with its natural wood pattern.

The Yaku-Sugi Cedar trees are found on the small island of Yakushima located at the South of Kyusyu Island  and was declared as a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1993. The Yaku-Sugi tree known as Cryptomeria Japonica has grown naturally for well over 1000 years on the island and the oldest surviving trees are protected and have individual names such as Johmon-sugi, Hahako-sugi, Tenchu- sugi, Kigen-sugi and many more. Yaku-Sugi is the national tree of Japan, commonly planted around temples and shrines, with many hugely impressive trees planted centuries ago. The wood is scented, reddish-pink in color, lightweight but strong, waterproof and resistant to decay.
