A young fisherman named Urashima Taro rescues a turtle, and as thanks he's carried beneath the waves to Ryugu-jo, the shimmering Dragon Palace at the bottom of the sea. It's one of Japan's best-loved fairy tales, and the Sailor Shikiori Japanese Fairy Tale Dragon Palace ball pen brings it to life in a cool mint green resin with gold plated trim.
The colour feels like sunlight filtering through clear seawater. It's fresh, calming and a little magical.
What's it like?
Honestly, it's a joy to hold. At 29g, it's weightier than most resin ball pens, which gives your writing a smooth, steady rhythm. The pen is 133mm long with a 12mm diameter, a proportion that suits most hands. Opening it is as simple as a twist of the barrel, and there's no cap to keep track of.
Mint green: a refreshing choice
If your pen cup is full of black, blue and silver, a mint green ball pen is a welcome change. Paired with gold, it looks elegant rather than playful, so it works in an office just as well as in a personal journal.
About the collection
The Japanese Fairy Tale series sits within Sailor's Shikiori collection, known for giving each pen a name and colour rooted in Japanese culture. Dragon Palace is joined by Vega, Princess Kaguya and the Grateful Crane.
Gift it to
Ocean lovers, divers, travellers, fans of Japanese folklore, or anyone who deserves a pen that feels a little enchanted. It arrives in original Sailor packaging with an international warranty card.
