The Platinum 3776 Century Kaga Hira Maki-E Sakura fountain pen is the best way to celebrate cherry blossom season in Japan, which happens between late March and early April. During this period, people come together beneath the blossoming trees for hanami (flower viewing) and socializing, paired with sakura-themed food and drinks. 

Inspired by the celebrations of a blossom that symbolizes the transience of life, Platinum released the 3776 Century Maki-E Kaga Hira Maki-E Sakura as part of the Kaga Hira Maki-e series that pays homage to the lacquering tradition of Kanazawa. These urushi pens are part of the special materials collection that does away with bands and rings to highlight flowing designs from cap to barrel.
