Sailor

Sailor is a Japanese fountain pen brand with over 110 years of craftsmanship, innovation, and cultural legacy. Founded in 1911 in Kure, a historic port city, Sailor was one of the first companies to manufacture fountain pens in Japan. Since then, it has remained a leader in precision penmaking and Japanese design.

Every Sailor pen reflects a deep respect for tradition and continuous refinement. From its proprietary nibs—still made in-house—to its sleek, balanced designs, Sailor focuses on function, beauty, and the tactile joy of writing. The iconic anchor logo symbolizes trust, craftsmanship, and a connection to the brand’s nautical roots.

Sailor is known for high-quality materials, exacting standards, and a commitment to “master functional beauty.” Models like the 1911 and Pro Gear series are favorites among enthusiasts for their smooth nibs and aesthetic precision.

Guided by the founder’s principle to “live responsibly,” Sailor continues to create writing instruments that inspire creativity and elevate the everyday act of putting pen to paper.
