Product description

Discover Sailor Professional Gear Slim Mini "Rencontre" Fountain Pen - Raisin (11-2231-332). Made in Japan, the Sailor 11-2231-332 belongs to the highly sought-after Professional Gear Slim Mini line, specifically from the "Rencontre" series. This pen is a captivating fusion of Sailor's flat-top, modern "Pro Gear" design with a stunning, unique resin material, packaged in a highly portable format. 

 

Product features

  • The Exclusive "Rencontre" Grape Finish: The "Rencontre" (French for "Encounter") series is defined by its striking, custom-blended resin bodies, where transparent and opaque acrylics meet in beautiful, swirling patterns. 
  • "Raisin" (Grape) Colourway: This stunning finish is named for its deep, sumptuous tones reminiscent of dark grapes. It features a rich blend of deep purple and translucent burgundy acrylic resins, often swirled with hints of black or dark plum. The unique marbling technique gives the color a remarkable depth and lustre.
  • Pro Gear Slim Mini Form: This pen takes the iconic, flat-top shape of the Professional Gear Slim but in a compact "Mini" size (approx. 109.5mm capped). It is a perfect pocket pen, designed to be used posted (with the cap secured on the back) to achieve a comfortable, full-length writing experience. 
  • Premium Gold Trim: The rich Raisin resin is beautifully accented with gold-plated trim, including the signature Pro Gear cap band inscribed with "SAILOR JAPAN FOUNDED 1911."
  • Precision 14K Gold Nib: Despite its compact size, the Pro Gear Slim Mini houses a genuine, high-performance gold nib, providing the writing experience Sailor is famous for. It is fitted with Sailor's renowned smaller-sized 14-karat gold nib, guaranteeing a responsive feel and consistent ink flow. 
  • Medium-Fine (MF) Precision: The specific model 11-2231-332 comes with a Medium-Fine (MF) nib. This Japanese size is highly desired for its precise line that offers more expression than a Fine, making it excellent for daily writing, note-taking, and showcasing ink properties. 
  • Signature Feedback: Expect the legendary, pencil-like feedback that allows for ultimate control and a pleasurable tactile connection as you write. 
  • One-of-a-Kind Pattern: Through Sailor's proprietary resin molding technology, the two materials melt and mix irregularly, ensuring that no two "Raisin" pens are exactly alike. Each pen offers a unique, personal "encounter" with its distinctive marble pattern.


This limited edition  Sailor Professional Gear Slim Mini Rencontre "Raisin" (11-2231-332) is a testament to Sailor's dedication to craftsmanship, combining eye-catching aesthetics with the exceptional performance expected of a Japanese gold-nib pen.

It is undoubtedly a coveted piece that combines the craftsmanship of a high-quality Japanese gold nib with the eye-catching beauty of a unique, limited-edition resin—all in a perfectly portable form.
