Description

Sailors Tea Time Around the World series is a collection that beautifully captures the essence of tea rituals cherished across cultures. This exquisite series of writing instruments is inspired not only by the teas but also by the ornate utensils, elegant settings, and sweet accompaniments integral to these timeless traditions.

The Afternoon Tea series is a tribute to the classic English afternoon tea, a tradition that began in the 19th century and continues to flourish. This time-honored custom involves enjoying a variety of dainty savory and sweet treats presented on a classic three-tiered cake stand. It’s a ritual that invites both relaxation and conversation.

Black tea comes in a rich variety of flavors and aromas. One of the many joys of afternoon tea is selecting from a diverse range of teas and pairing them with delectable foods. The color of this original ink by Sailor Pen is inspired by the appealing, gentle tone of orange pekoe tea.

About Sailor:

Sailor was founded in 1911. The founder Kyugoro Sakata was given a fountain pen by a friend returning from the UK after studying at the Royal Navy. Hewas inspired and determined to start making fountain pens in Japan. Sailor became the first fountain pen company in Japan, and earned many more firsts in Japan — first ballpoint pen in 1948, first ink cartridge in 1954 and first brush pen in 1972, etc.

In the 1970’s, Sailor made a popular beginner fountain pen, “Candy,” that sold more than 15 million within a few years. However, the number of the fountain pen users were declining as ballpoint pens became more mainstream.

In 1981, Sailordecided to go in the opposite direction from their “Candy” pen and began focusing onproducing a higher standard series, which is the 1911 series we see today. Their focus on making a higher standard provides a great foundation for their later series of pens. Today, Sailor makes one of the most diverse lines of nibs, some of which are designed forspecificwriting purposessuch as writing musical notes toone that is best for character writing.
