TESTIMONIALS

Who made your Dream Pen?

Dream Pen - 夢万年筆

A cigar-shaped fountain pen with ebonite material as the base to conver the true values of Japanese traditional arts.

With a great fountain pen, you can write many beautiful things and amazing ideas. And from there, many good things are believed to come.

We hope that with our Dream Pen, many dreams will be written about and become true.

 

True Urushi

Urushi lacquer is applied with a brush to an object by the hand of a traditional craftsman. After the careful application of many layers of Urushi and ornamentation, Urushi brings great protection for the art piece as it makes the object able to withstand erosion from water, acids, alcohol, and changes in weather conditions.

Each creation of the Urushi art piece requires a lot of time and skills. And you can feel the dedication of an artisan when you touch and feel the quality of the final product.

 

Making Process

Every single pen is painted by the hands of Japanese craftsmen in Wajima.

The creation of an Urushi fountain pen takes a least 3 months or even longer to make sure the final piece of art is at its most beautiful finish.

Reviews

A wonderful piece of art.

"Just got home from two weeks away to find this waiting for me! Couldn’t wait to ink it with ‘Cistern’ from Birmingham Inks. The medium nib flows beautifully…maybe a bit broader than expected, but the flow is perfect. The finish is intoxicating. The color is beautiful."

True beauty

"I bought this a graduation gift for my daughter and it looks incredible and is the best looking pen I have ever seen. It is marvellous just for the looks alone I would say it is worth it."

Zak M. (5/5)

What an incredible pen!

"I received this a few months ago, and I love it. The pen's diameter is fantastic for my hand, and I can use it for extended writing due to how comfortable it is."

Bad nib

"The payment did. Not work correctly and they Endes up sending something i did. not request in terms of nib The nibs arent good"

Verena S. (1/5)

First urushi pen - extremely happy

"As noted this was my first urushi pen. While not inexpensive it is an exceptional value. The finish is beautifully done. The pen is well-balanced and comfortable to write with. The 18k M nib is on the fine side width-wise (as expected) with a pleasant amount of bounce but a tad drier than I might prefer. The purchase experience was great with quick shipping, excellent packaging, and beautiful presentation. I'm sure this will not be the only Wancher pen in my collection."

Eric B. (5/5)

What An Amazing (and Affordable) Unushi Pen!

"I am very grateful to Wancher for producing an affordable Urushi fountain pen. The True Urushi Dream Pen in Red that I purchased for myself for Christmas is a beautiful pen and a joy to write with. While the version of this pen with a pocket clip was unavailable at the time of my purchase, I'm very impressed with the snowflake pen stopper I selected instead. The silver snowflake complements the silver Wancher (JoWo) broad nib. The pen's Red Urushi color is very elegant and dignified, and the overall quality and craftsmanship of the Urushi lacquer finish presents beautifully. I love this fountain pen and look forward to many years of enjoying it."

Striking Red!

"I finally got the Red Urushi… and it’s as beautiful as I imagined. I picked up the yellow (beautiful as well!) when the red was out of stock before now. It’s like writing instrument and art at the same time!"

Tony P. (5/5)

Beautiful urushi!

"First of all the pen is very shiny, I love it. The weight is just right, not heavy but not light, it made me feel like the pen is there when im writing. Some people dislike the spring cap thing maybe is because it get in the way of capping sometime but in my opinion it feel great when screwing the cap in and capped it tighter prevent dry ink. The service is great, very quick response."

Q&A

Will you be offering an option for a clip in future versions?
I surely would. The clip will not disturb the minimalistic design which I really appreciate
