Red Mt.Fuji Yamanaka Retractable Ballpoint Pen
Inspired by the majestic beauty of Mt. Fuji at sunrise, this Japanese ballpoint pen reflects the serene power of Japan’s most iconic mountain. Handcrafted in Yamanaka, Ishikawa, it features an aluminum body finished with synthetic lacquer, a modern interpretation of Yamanaka’s traditional lacquer artistry.
The vivid red and gold design evokes the rare “Red Fuji,” a natural phenomenon seen when the morning sun paints Mt. Fuji in warm hues. Its smooth retractable mechanism ensures effortless writing, while the well-balanced aluminum body provides both durability and comfort.
Created by Maeju Shikki, a Yamanaka lacquerware studio established in 1939, this pen carries forward over 80 years of craftsmanship. A refined addition to any Japanese stationery collection, it blends the timeless elegance of Japanese design with everyday functionality.
