Each pattern symbolizes a special auspicious sign so that you can choose your own favorite based on the design or meaning. The preppy series has been well-received since its first appearance in 2007 for its high writing performance while being reasonably priced. The nib made of highly-polished stainless steel with a mixed metal point provides excellent abrasion resistance, making it the best quality fountain pen series for this price range.
It also comes equipped with the Slip & Seal Mechanism, which prevents the ink from drying out inside the pen even after a year without usage, providing a stress-free, smooth writing experience at any time. Preppy Wa models are particularly appreciated by international customers while the auspicious patterns make them ideal for a casual gift.
Unlike conventional Maki-e, it is applied with silk screen printing instead of Urushi lacquer on the underlayer, which is then sprinkled with colored powders such as gold and silver and hand-finished one by one by Maki-e artisans. It gives more thickness compared to normal printing, while the reflections and shades of the powders create a three-dimensional feel
