Bungukan Kobayashi Shizuoka Ink — 50ml

Shizuoka Ink is the house ink of Bungukan Kobayashi, a family stationery shop in Shizuoka. Each colour is named after a place, a local speciality or a piece of history in Shizuoka Prefecture, and every bottle is made for the shop by Sailor. In Japan they sell in small monthly batches, and they are rarely seen outside the country.

The Nib Safety Net

"Gravity Happens. We’ve Got You Covered."

We know the heartbreak of a fountain pen hitting the floor. As a member of our Creative Rewards, you don't have to worry about the 'tines.' If the worst happens, just send us a photo and we'll send you a 50% discount for a fresh start.

"The Nib Safety Net" – Terms & Conditions

  • Eligibility: This benefit is exclusive to active members of the Creative Rewards program at the time of the accident.
  • Coverage: The 50% discount applies strictly to accidental damage (e.g., dropping the pen) that renders the nib unusable. It does not cover intentional damage, loss of the pen, theft, or normal wear and tear.
  • The Claim: To activate your discount, you must provide a clear photo of the damaged nib and your original order number to oops@yourstore.com.
  • Limitations: This discount is valid for a one-time replacement per pen purchased and applies only to the cost of the replacement nib unit. It cannot be combined with other promotional codes or used for full pen replacements.
  • Availability: We will provide the discount for the exact nib model where stock is available. If the model is discontinued, we will offer a 50% discount on a comparable alternative nib unit.

Travelling Shizuoka in ink

The series was designed so that you could explore Shizuoka through its colours. Shizuoka is famous for its strawberries and its mandarin oranges, and Suruga Bay lies at the foot of Mount Fuji. Other colours in the range take their names from towns, legends and historic sites across the prefecture. The shop’s own description is that the series lets you travel Shizuoka and discover parts of it you did not know.

Made by Sailor

Like many of the best Japanese shop-original inks, Shizuoka Ink is produced by Sailor, so it behaves like a well-made Japanese fountain pen ink: smooth and reliable in any pen.

Honest Note:

These are small-batch shop originals. Even in Japan the shop sells them online only about once a month, in limited quantities, so we cannot promise a restock of any colour. If one becomes a favourite, buy a spare.

Who is it For?

• Fountain pen enthusiasts who collect regional Japanese inks
• Anyone who has visited Shizuoka or Mount Fuji
• A distinctive gift for an ink collector
