The Sailor CYLINT Niigata Lacquerware ballpoint pen combines a stainless steel body with traditional Niigata lacquer art. The textured Ishime-nuri finish evokes the mineral surface of stone while forming a hard, scratch-resistant coating.

The Oboro-gin and Ruri versions are handcrafted, making each piece slightly different. The twist mechanism and weighted body create a Japanese writing instrument that is tactile, functional, and decorative.
