Teatime Around the World
Step into the refined world of Sailor’s “Teatime Around the World” series, a collection that beautifully captures the essence of tea rituals cherished across cultures. This exquisite series of writing instruments is inspired not only by the teas themselves but also by the ornate utensils, elegant settings, and sweet accompaniments that are integral to these timeless traditions.
The “Afternoon Tea” series is a tribute to the classic English afternoon tea, a tradition that began in the 19th century and continues to flourish. This time-honored custom involves enjoying a variety of dainty savory and sweet treats presented on a classic three-tiered cake stand. It's a ritual that invites both relaxation and conversation.
The Three Tiers fountain pen beautifully mirrors the iconic three-tier cake stand, an essential element of the English tea ceremony. Its translucent sky blue and ivory hues, paired with luxurious gold and rhodium plating, evoke the journey from savory treats to sweet indulgences.
Sailor's Pro Gear Standard fountain pen is a comfortable mid-sized pen, small enough to fit in a pocket but long enough for comfortable everyday use. It's got a classic shape with a flat-top cap and a round barrel and grip, and comes with a converter and ink cartridges to get you started. Sailor makes their gold nibs in-house, and they're known for being exceptionally precise, with a unique feedback sensation. (Note that Sailor nibs run on the fine side, like other Japanese fountain pen nibs.)
