Pilot Custom Urushi

Experience pure luxury with the PILOT CUSTOM Urushi fountain pen. Created by skilled maki-e artisans, this pen is a true work of art. Its Ebonite-lacquered cap and wax lacquered barrel, made using the exquisite Roiro Urushi technique, add to its elegance.

Pushing the boundaries of colour and technique, PILOT's maki-e artisans continue to elevate writing to an art form with the new CUSTOM Urushi KONJO. Achieving a deep blue within this medium is a complex challenge as Urushi, a traditional Japanese lacquer, naturally lends itself to earthy tones. 

The CUSTOM Urushi family features elegant gold accents and PILOT's largest No. 30 Nib in Two-Tone 18K Gold, produced in-house and embodying the masterful craftsmanship and precision involved with the creation of the overall fountain pen. PILOT understands that the nib is at the heart of every fountain pen, shaping the writing experience. Whether you seek a smooth, flowing line or a controlled, intricate stroke, PILOT aspires for every fountain pen to become a personalised tool for self-expression, making every stroke on paper a delight for the senses.

Collections

  • Bottled Fountain Pen Ink

    Choose bottled fountain pen ink if you want the widest color selection and a more refillable writing experience. Bottled ink works with compatible fountain pens using a converter, piston filling system, or other bottle-fill mechanism.

  • Fountain Pen Ink Cartridges

    Choose ink cartridges if you want a simple, convenient refill option with less setup and easier travel. Cartridges are a good choice for everyday writing, school, work, and anyone who wants a faster refill process.

  • Flushing your fountain pen regularly—

    especially when changing ink colors, every six weeks, or before storing the pen—is essential to prevent ink residue buildup, muddy color mixing, and clogged feeds that can lead to scratchy or inconsistent writing.
