About this craft

Kuretake (founded 1902) remains Japan's premium brush and ink house. DAY142-5 'Starry Night' pairs traditional shodō (calligraphy) aesthetics with genuine leather grip—reflecting Japanese artisan approach to hand-tool design. 'Sen' polyester bristles replicate animal hair without harvesting.

Description

Kuretake brush pen with genuine leather grip, brown 15mm nib, includes refills

Cap immediately after use. Store horizontally or nib-down. Leather grip benefits from occasional light conditioning with neutral shoe cream—avoid excess moisture. Clean nib weekly under cool water when switching inks. Refill cartridges insert into grip—do not force.
