Nakaya Piccolo Writer Housoge Black Gold
The adornment of this Piccolo fountain pen elevates it beyond utility. "Housoge" has the poetic connotations of being a flower in the imagination, or a blossom in paradise.
The Piccolo is the most compact Nakaya model, but will still be a very comfortable fit for most hands. As with all Nakaya ebonite pens, it has been hand turned from naturally harvested hard rubber and then sent to the Wajima region on the west coast of Japan to the Chinkin artist.
