{"product_id":"sailor-professional-gear-wajima-bijou-coral-fountain-pen-1","title":"Sailor Professional Gear Wajima Bijou Coral Fountain Pen","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Sailor Professional Gear Wajima Bijou Coral Fountain Pen brings one of Japan’s most respected lacquer traditions to the familiar Professional Gear silhouette. Rather than treating the Pro Gear as a blank surface for color alone, the Wajima Bijou series uses layered lacquer, mother-of-pearl, and gold powder to create a finish with the depth and visual richness of jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWajima Craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWajima lacquerware is built through an exacting process of repeated coating, curing, polishing, and refinement. On the Coral edition, the surface is hand finished in a warm red tone and accented with decorative techniques associated with traditional Japanese lacquer work. Mother-of-pearl at the cap top reinforces the “Bijou” theme, while the gold trim and engraved center band give the pen a formal, cohesive presentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe appeal is not simply the color itself, but the way the surface responds to light. The lacquer develops visual depth that a conventional resin body cannot replicate, and the mother-of-pearl details introduce small flashes of iridescence without overwhelming the understated Professional Gear form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWriting Experience\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeneath the decorative work is Sailor’s Standard-size Professional Gear platform, fitted here with a large 21k gold Medium nib. Sailor’s 21k nibs are prized for their controlled feedback and precise line character, giving the pen a writing experience that remains unmistakably Sailor despite the artisan exterior. The cartridge\/converter filling system keeps maintenance straightforward and allows the pen to move easily between bottled inks and proprietary cartridges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCollector Context\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Wajima Bijou collection was produced in a total of 600 pens worldwide, divided evenly between Coral and Sapphire, leaving 300 examples in each color. The limited production, numbered presentation, and hand-applied lacquer work give the Coral edition considerably more collector significance than a standard Professional Gear finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollection: Professional Gear Wajima Bijou\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Coral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLimited Edition: 300 pieces in Coral\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWriting Type: Fountain Pen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrimary Color: Red\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecorative Techniques: Wajima Lacquer, Maki-e, Mother-of-Pearl, Gold Powder\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNib: Medium, 21k Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilling System: Cartridge Converter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of Origin: Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Sailor","offers":[{"title":"Medium","offer_id":67723166220563,"sku":null,"price":1799.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2083\/6627\/files\/Sailor-Professional-Gear-Wajima-Bijou-Coral-Fountain-Pen-uncapped-leaning.jpg?v=1792687899","url":"https:\/\/www.truphaeinc.com\/products\/sailor-professional-gear-wajima-bijou-coral-fountain-pen-1","provider":"Truphae","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
