Hyotan - Gourd

The fruit of the gourd has a constricted shape in the center, and because of its interesting shape, it was made into a pattern along with the vines and leaves. Because gourds have many seeds, they are popular as auspicious patterns that bring prosperity to descendants. The Sennari gourd, which bears many fruits, is famous as Toyotomi Hideyoshis horse seal.

Nasu - Eggplant

The Japanese word Nasu is a homophone that means "things will go well" and "success," and people have loved it as a pattern that brings good luck. It is said that "Ichi-Fuji, Ni-Taka, San-Nasubi (Mt.Fuji, hawk, and eggplants)" will bring good luck if seen in first dream of New Year, and it is a plant that is familiar to Japanese people.

Tachibana - Citrus tachibana

Tachibana is the only wild mandarin orange in Japan. In Kojiki (records of ancient matters in Japan), Tachibana is described as a plant of Tokoyo no Kuni (the utopia of immortality).

Yanagi ni Koumori - Bats and Willow

In China, the kanji for bat has the same sound as "turning into good fortune," so it is considered an auspicious pattern that symbolizes good fortune and longevity. Japan was also influenced by this and was seen as a symbol of happiness during the Heian period.

Koi no Taki-Nobori - Carp climbing up a waterfall

Carp with strong vitality is considered the chief river fish. And it is also said to be an auspicious pattern that symbolizes success in life, based on an ancient Chinese story that says, "A carp that climbs a rushing waterfall ascends to the sky and becomes a dragon."

Asagao - Morning Glory

Morning glories were introduced in the Heian period for medicinal purposes, and their cultivation became popular during the Edo period, where they began to be depicted in ukiyo-e. Because the seeds are expensive, it is also said to be a symbol of wealth and prosperity. It also has the meaning of "solid bond" because it grows with a strong vine.

Customer Reviews

Overall rating: 4.8 / 5 from 23 reviews.

Bought several platinum preppy’s with the intention of filling them in different colors. I used the included cartridge in one and filled the others with ink using rubbers rings to seal. I decided I like the way the cartridge ink wrote better than the ones I filled so I will buy color cartridges in the future. These pens are fun and inexpensive so I am enjoying having many of them.

It started out great but now the ink is skipping as I write and the cartridge is full. Not sure if I’ll be using this often if this is the case. I guess I’ll try to get a converter to see if it fix the skipping. If not, this one is a dud😕.

I had the most wonderful shopping experience. USPS had lost my package and they kindly offered to send me a replacement with expedited shipping. Their replies to all my queries were promptly answered. The pen is fantastic as well.

I cannot express how great their customer support is. It was such a pleasant experience. The pen was packaged nicely and writes super smooth. I'm new to fountain pens and ink and they made me feel comfortable. I will be coming back to this site.
