■About the product name "Maki-e Bunbo Fountain Pen / Ballpoint Pen" "Bunbo" means a room for reading and writing, or a so-called "study." In the past, writers were recognized as having a special attachment to stationery as stationery tools, and brushes, ink, inkstones, and paper came to be especially valued as the "four treasures of the study."
We want people to reconsider the way they enjoy writing as seen in this work, and write freely with Maki-e fountain pens and ballpoint pens as stationery tools. We want people to carefully consider their words and deliver them to their loved ones. We want people to once again rediscover the act of writing as a precious time. With this in mind, we named our products "Maki-e Bunbo Fountain Pens and Ballpoint Pens."
