Maruzen Pens For The Marunouchi Oazo 10Th Anniversary

Recommended Posts

Last year, I was told that Maruzen Marunouchi will have some stuff for the 10th anniversary of the Oazo building where their Marunouchi store is located.

I have no idea if anything has changed due to the pandemic.

 

It seems that there will be also a Nakaya pen for this event - a LE to this store.

 

Nakaya published pictures of that pen on their facebook site:

220000 Yen including tax

Hello mke

 

From limited information form the web, 2019 was the 15th anniversary year for the Marunouchi Oazo.

Maruzen released limited edition "LEMON" last year.

 

Here's the web page for the anniversary goods.

https://www.marunouchi.com/lp/oazo15th/goods/

 

You can find the pen at the right side of the second row.

 

And, I suppose NAKAYA limited edition is not related to the OAZO building.

 

 

best regards,

Thank you.

 

Strange, we were talking that they are late for the Olympics. It might be possible that Maruzen is 10 years in Oazo????

I don't know.

 

The lemon is nothing special to Maruzen Marunouchi. It was also sold at Nihombashi.

I don't go to Tokyo soon. So, I think I should send them an email.

 

Here the Lemon pen advertisement from their 2019 penshow.

Hi,

 

You are correct, "LEMON" is for Maruzen's 150th anniversary. Only 15 pens are sold for OAZO 15th anniversary.

 

And, according to the Japanese Wiki, Maruzen Marunouchi (oazo) was also from September 2004.

So, 2019 was the 15th anniversary year of Maruzen Marunouchi.

 

Very strange.

Thank you.

 

Just remembered that I sent a mail to some friends after talking to the person from Maruzen: "The shopping mall Oazo has its 15th anniversary in 2020 and Maruzen might bring out an LE honoring that event." sent 2019/7/19

 

Either I understood wrongly 2020 (which I certainly did not because we were talking about the date would be unfortunately after the Olympics) or the person didn't know that the anniversary is in 2019.

 

But then why now the Nakaya LE?

🤔

I bought a 10th anniversary pen several years ago, the lost one in fact.  Now have a later anniversary pen from them, I do not remember which year.  So they tenth anniversary year is past.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..

      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
