Penhouse X Sailor Precious Aquamarine

[htownJD]

Does anyone know where Penhouse pens are sold in Japan? Do they have their own stores, or are they available through the usual suspects (Itoya, Maruzen, Bungubox etc)?

For your first question, I am not sure.

 

As for your second question, they do not have their own stores. It's to keep down prices. They do have an office in Osaka, however. From their website:

Mine also took about a week to arrive. Gorgeous and a very smooth, silky writer.

So my fiancee does not me to take pictures of her pen (understandably). She was floored when she saw it at first. It's a gorgeous pen, beautiful sparkles, and lovely pink gold. Smaller than she expected. She seems to not really like the nib though. She let me write with it and I really loved how it felt, agreeing that it was smaller than I expected. I have big hands and this was barely too small for me. It has a good tooth to the writing. I think my fiancee just really prefers slick nibs.

Seems like I might have misled some people with my information dump. I first thought this pen had some relation to Onishi-seisakusho and thus had some kind of schmidt nib. This is incorrect. It is a Sailor pen. My confusion came from the fact that Pent (Penhouse's exclusive brand) has a few collaboration pens with Onishi-Seisakusho, and thus I believed they had somehow outsourced the Pent brand work to Onishi-Seisakusho. Not so!

 

This is a Pent x Sailor collaboration. No Onishi-Seisakusho involved. It comes in a Sailor box.

 

Sorry for confusing everyone!
