About Shizuku Glass Nib Fountain Pen

The name Shizuku in Japanese is inspired from the picture of a water (or ink) drop on the surface. Shizuku is a special fountain pen featured with handmade glass nib and converter mechanism.

In Japan, glass pen was developed since Meiji period and it was very popular. However, due to the fact that the ink couldn't be stored and the inconvenience of carrying and ink stains, glass pens became less favored than fountain pens and ballpoint pens.

This time we would like to gain back the popularity of glass pen by introducing Shizuku glass nib fountain pen with which aforementioned problems were solved.

Firstly, you won't be bothered with the ink storage problem of glass pen any more since our Shizuku glass nib fountain pen works well with an ink converter. Glass nib can connect directly to a converter. Therefore, you can write with a glass pen for as long as when writing with fountain pen.

Secondly, the techniques used in creating our Shizuku pen are originally invented and developed by Mr. 楊森 who had been researching and making glass for decades. The nib is crafted using hard-cured resin (hard resin) to ensure a smooth, impact-resistant body.

While the original Shizuku pens were made from the impressive Duralumin material, the Andromeda and Gaia were made using hard resin in reference to the common utilization of hard-cured epoxy resin in JPL (Jet Propulsion Labs), research facilities, and of course, aerospace. The resin material makes the pen strong yet flexible while retaining a good resistance to cracks.

Hold the pen, relax your arm, then touch the glass nib on paper, you will not only enjoy the look but also feel an ultimate smoothness and amazing ink flow.

Original Glass Nib Fountain Pen

The converter mechanism of glass nib has been registered under Japan Patent Office with Certificate of Utility Model Registration. The glass nib is proved to be able to supply ink directly from the converter.
