Pilot Custom Urushi Vermillion Oversize Fountain Pen

The Pilot Custom Urushi Vermillion is one of the most labor-intensive pens Pilot produces — an oversized ebonite body coated in pure Urushi lacquer applied by hand by Japanese artisans in multiple layers. The result is a deep, luminous vermillion finish that develops character with use. The 18k gold nib has a slight bounce that makes long writing sessions feel effortless.
