This compact brass ballpoint pen is designed for easy portability and smooth writing. Over time, the brass develops a rich texture that adds character, complemented by a high-quality finish crafted by skilled Japanese artisans. The pen features a ring at the top for attaching hooks or strings, allowing you to customize it with beads or clip it to your bag as a key holder. If you prefer a clip-free look, simply remove the ring. Perfect for your Traveler's Notebook Pen Holder or carrying in your pocket, it uses international standard cartridges for convenience.
