Pilot Custom 845 Fountain Pen – Black

The Pilot Custom 845 Fountain Pen in Vermillion represents the perfect blend of traditional Japanese artistry and modern functionality. As a distinguished member of Pilot’s iconic Custom line, first launched in 1971, this pen is thoughtfully designed to meet diverse writing preferences. Known for its impeccable craftsmanship and elegant design, the Custom 845 has gained international acclaim as a symbol of sophistication and quality.

The pen’s ebonite barrel is finished with a breathtaking Urushi lacquer, a signature element of Japanese craftsmanship. Urushi lacquer, derived from the sap of the Asian lacquer tree, is meticulously applied by hand in multiple layers. This intricate process not only imparts a rich, glossy finish but also enhances the pen’s durability, making it resistant to water, alcohol, acids, and temperature fluctuations. The result is a writing instrument that is as functional as it is beautiful, capable of lasting generations with proper care.

At its core, the Custom 845 features a two-tone 18k gold nib in size #15, renowned for delivering an unparalleled writing experience. This nib glides smoothly across the page, offering precision and fluidity for even the most demanding writers. The pen is equipped with a Pilot Con-70 converter, providing a generous ink capacity for bottled ink enthusiasts, while also supporting Pilot’s proprietary ink cartridges for added convenience.

More than a tool, the Pilot Custom 845 is a work of art. It serves as a testament to Pilot’s dedication to merging heritage techniques with modern innovation. Packaged in a luxurious gift box, it makes an exceptional addition to any collection or a meaningful gift for those who value timeless elegance and craftsmanship.
