Kakimori Nib Holder (Aizome)
The Kakimori Nib Holder in Aizome is a beautifully crafted dip pen holder that pairs Japanese cherry wood with traditional indigo dyeing.
Made in Japan, each holder is individually hand-dyed by an indigo artisan, creating a rich blue tone with subtle variations that make every piece unique. The Japanese cherry wood stem is shaped to a familiar pencil-like length for comfortable writing and illustration, while the plastic nib mount fits a wide range of nibs for flexible creative use. Over time, the indigo finish gently softens and evolves, developing character through regular use.
