Nakaya Long Cigar Ama-iro

The bright, light, playful color of the Nakaya Long Cigar in Ama-iro adds a whole new dimension to the color palate we associate with Nakaya. A rounded shape and sleek, smooth body provides an excellent canvas for this finish. 

Nakaya has temporarily suspended taking new orders for pens in Ama-iro finish - we are limited to pens already in stock or on pre-order from Nakaya, after which no more will be available until further notice.

This is the Nakaya Long Cigar in the light blue sky-color known as Ama-iro. 

Nakaya is perhaps best known for the richness of darker colored hues such as Kuro-tamenuri and Shobu - for an interesting contrast, compare this pen with the dark blue Neo Standard Kikyo. This pen adds a lighter finish to Nakaya's repertoire. 

Nakaya pens can be filled with bottled fountain pen ink using the provided converter and can also use Platinum brand ink cartridges. Hand-painted Maki-e converters are also available.

The Nakaya Long Cigar Ama-iro is provided with  solid gold 14k single-tone nib in your choice of tipping size.

The double slit Music nib is available at an added premium, as are plated nibs in Pink Gold, Rhodium, Ruthenium, or Two-Tone - consult our Nakaya Nibs page for details.

14k nibs are well-suited to customizations including Stub, Cursive Italic, and Left Oblique, as well as the modification for added flex - see our nib customizations page for more information.
 

Decorative rice paper, a simple solid softwood shipping box decorated with Japanese Kanji script, and a fabric pen "kimono" are all included with this pen, making it a lovely presentation item. Sensible and elegant packaging has long been a hallmark of the Nakaya brand.


Nakaya pens are individually handcrafted in a process that requires a minimum of three to six months and often much longer. 

Unless requested otherwise, each pen or nib you purchase from us will be carefully examined, tested, and optimized for your personal writing characteristics before it ships. See our nib set-up and optimization page for more details.
