SAKURA craft_lab 010 Antique Gel Pen

The SAKURA craft_lab 010 feels like a small piece of Japanese craftsmanship disguised as a writing instrument. It blends the warmth of vintage design with the precision engineering that Sakura is known for, resulting in a pen that feels both nostalgic and quietly luxurious.
The body carries an antique-inspired finish—subtle, matte, and intentionally understated—giving it the character of a well‑kept heirloom rather than a flashy accessory. Its metal construction adds a reassuring weight, and the slim, balanced profile makes long writing sessions feel effortless. Every detail, from the finely machined grip to the smooth twist mechanism, reflects the brand’s obsession with tactile quality.
Inside, the gel ink delivers the signature Sakura smoothness: dense, consistent lines with no skipping, feathering, or hesitation. It glides across the page with a softness that encourages slower, more deliberate handwriting, almost like the pen is inviting you to savour the act of writing itself.
