Introducing the Tea Time series by Sailor, a new series designed to celebrate different tea time traditions practiced around the world. The first release in this series was inspired by Sweden. The Sailor Professional Gear FIKA Cup pen and Professional Gear FIKA Hallongrotta pen were designed to honor the Swedish tradition of Fika. Fika is an afternoon coffee break that is less about making a quick stop for a to-go cup, and more about the experience of savoring the moment (and a pastry) with a friend. Fika is such an integral part of Swedish culture that most companies require time away from work for this practice each day. To round out this tribute to Fika, Sailor also developed the FIKA Coffee bottled ink: a deep, coffee-colored brown ink that will bring a warmth to your writing.

The Sailor Professional Gear FIKA Cup is available as a fountain pen and it comes in different shades of blue like those used on traditional Swedish ceramic pieces. The fountain is beautifully accented in chrome with a rhodium plated, 21K gold nib.

The Sailor Professional Gear Slim FIKA Hallongrotta is available as a fountain pen that is designed in a deep raspberry red, reminiscent of the pastry for which it’s named: a Swedish butter cookie filled with raspberry jam. The raspberry color is trimmed by golden accents with a 14K gold nib.
