Product description

Discover Sailor Shikiori Hisakata Fountain Pen - Akanezora (11-0500-233), The Deep Hues of Autumn Dusk: A Sky Painted in Madder Red. From the world-renowned Japanese manufacturer Sailor, the Shikiori Hisakata ("Sky, Moon") series beautifully captures the transient, evocative moments of Japan's four seasons. 

The model 11-0500-233, named Akanezora, is a stunning tribute to the rich, dramatic colors of the autumn sky at sunset. Design & Inspiration: The Akanezora Akanezora (茜空) translates to "Madder Red Sky"—the deep, brilliant, and fleeting red that blankets the heavens during an autumn sunset, often accompanied by the quiet sight of falling leaves or red dragonflies (akane is a traditional madder dye color). 

• Color & Finish: The pen is crafted from a deep, translucent red/burgundy PMMA resin that shifts in the light, evoking the Western sky as it is "dyed in a darker color" at dusk. This rich, profound hue perfectly captures the beauty and depth of the fall season. 
  
• Aesthetics: Featuring the classic, streamlined silhouette of the former "Procolor 500" line, the pen is elegantly finished with sleek, polished chrome-plated trim. This silver accent provides a crisp contrast to the pen's warm, autumnal body. 
  
• Dimensions: Its light weight (approx. 12.2g) and balanced design make it comfortable for extended periods of writing, maintaining the Sailor tradition of practical, high-quality craftsmanship. The Precision of a Sailor Nib The Akanezora provides an excellent entry point into the world of Sailor's celebrated writing performance. 
  
• Nib: Equipped with a dependable Stainless Steel Fine (F) nib featuring a nickel-chrome finish. Sailor's Fine nibs are famous for their remarkable precision, laying down a thin, consistent line ideal for detailed work, small script, and professional documents. 
  
• Writing Feel: You can expect the characteristic "pencil-like" feedback that Sailor nibs are known for—a distinct tactile sensation prized by enthusiasts for giving a unique connection to the paper. 
  
• Filling System: The pen operates on a Cartridge/Converter dual-use system, allowing the flexibility to use a range of Sailor's unique bottled inks or their convenient proprietary cartridges.

The Sailor Shikiori Akanezora is a sophisticated and compelling writing instrument. It invites you to pause and appreciate the fading light of the day and the deep, rich colors of autumn, transforming your daily writing into a moment of seasonal reflection.
