To celebrate the release of Platinum Pen’s model, the #3776 CENTURY, a series of fountain pens called “Fuji Five Lakes” was created from 2011 to 2016, followed by the “Fuji Shunkei” series from 2017 to 2021, which showcased the beautiful seasonal scenes of Mt. Fuji on the body of the pens using an advanced cutting technique. In 2023, the “Fuji Unkei”series was born with the concept of expressing that image using various decorative methods, inspired by the beautiful scenery created by the collaboration of Mt. Fuji and the surrounding clouds.

As the second product in the series, we will be releasing “Kasumi,” which takes on the challenge of new decoration.

A new cutting expression inspired by Kasumi-Mon
Fuji Unkei “Kasumi” focuses on the rich natural greenery that can be glimpsed at the foot of Mt. Fuji through the mist, and the cap and gripping section are finished in a calming green color. The barrel is carved to reproduce the Kasumi – Mon (Kasumi pattern) that has been seen on picture scrolls and folding screen paintings since ancient times.

By connecting small circular cuts, we expressed the appearance of waving mist. This continuous yet irregularly arranged pattern gives a complex contrast and shine, creating a unique fountain pen never seen before.

“Fuji-No-Akatsuki” Ink for the Fuji Unkei series
The #3776 CENTURY Fuji Unkei series comes with a 20ml bottle of specially blended Fuji-No-Akatsuki ink to commemorate its release. This ink is inspired by the purplish panoramic view of Mt. Fuji seen at dawn. Depending on the lighting, you can see a deep green reflection. It is similar to the way the surrounding trees gradually change color as the sun rises. Please enjoy it together with the main body color of the fountain pen.

Description

SLIP & SEAL MECHANISM

It has normally been thought difficult to make an airtight pen with a screw-type cap. If not sealed tightly, the following problems can result:

  1. Ink drying out due to moisture evaporation.
  2. Problems with dried ink if the pen is not used for three to six months.
  3. It can be necessary to clean the pen using the Platinum Ink Cleaner Kit or even to repair or replace the nib itself if the damage due to dried ink is too severe.

At the request of customers, Platinum Pen Company have gone back to the basics to deal with this problem. This is the first fountain pen which has their unique “Slip & Seal” structure in a pen with a screw-type cap. Thanks to this innovation, currently being patented, it is possible to have a screw-type cap with complete airtightness.

The innovative cap contains a unique “Slip & Seal” mechanism that prevents ink from drying out in the pen. Meanwhile, a newly redesigned nib and feed regulate the ink flow. Founded in 1919, Platinum Pens is now nearing a full century of achievement. The #3776 “Century” celebrates this approaching anniversary and continues Platinum Pens’ tradition of technological innovation. With Platinum Pens, the pleasure of writing and the use of fine writing instruments will always be evolving.

The #3776“ Century” Fountain Pen. What qualities make for the ideal contemporary fountain pen? Sleek design, comfortable writing balance, smooth flow, and fast-drying ink… At the request of customers, we at Platinum Pen have gone back to the basics to address these issues. Every part and mechanism has been carefully studied and re-engineered. The result is the #3776 “Century,” designed on the base model of the popular #3776 series pens.
