Pro Gear Slim Manyo Fountain Pen Set | Dianthus | Limited Edition

Sailor’s lovely limited edition Manyo pen series was designed to accompany their popular Manyo inks, whose lovely shades are inspired by Japanese plants and flowers. Each Manyo pen draws on two ink colors, one for the barrel of the pen and one for its finials.

The Dianthus pen is a periwinkle color with charcoal gray finials, inspired by their purple Manyo Nadeshiko ink and black Manyo Chigaya ink. It has silver trim, and the cap features a dianthus blossom finial in place of Sailor’s silver anchor. This pen has a 14k gold nib and comes with a bottle of Sailor’s Manyo Nadeshiko ink.

Sailor’s Pro Gear Slim fountain pen is a comfortable mid-sized pen, small enough to fit in a pocket but long enough for comfortable everyday use. It’s got a classic shape with a flat-top cap and a round barrel and grip, and comes with a converter and ink cartridges to get you started. Sailor makes their gold nibs in-house, and they’re known for being exceptionally precise, with a unique feedback sensation. (Note that they run on the fine side, like other Japanese fountain pen nibs.)

Staff pick! Victor says: “This was my first entry into high-end fountain pens. It fits comfortably in my smaller hand and I really enjoy the gentle and smooth pencil-like feedback as the nib runs across the paper. It’s always exciting to see their beautiful new limited editions and oh-so difficult to hold back from collecting them all.”
