A Masterpiece of Japanese Craftsmanship in a Modern Fountain Pen
Inspired by the serene movement of water illuminated by moonlight, the Pilot Capless Raden Water Surface showcases a stunning raden finish created from carefully selected abalone shell fragments. Each piece reflects light differently, creating a dynamic pattern that changes with every angle.
Unlike traditional fountain pens, the Capless features Pilot's renowned retractable nib mechanism, allowing one-handed operation without the need for a cap.
The result is a rare combination of artistic heritage and modern convenience.

The Art of Raden
Raden is a centuries-old Japanese decorative technique that involves embedding thin pieces of mother-of-pearl into lacquerware. For the Water Surface design, artisans arrange iridescent shell fragments to emulate gentle ripples across a tranquil pond.
Because each shell fragment is unique, no two pens are exactly alike.
