The colour of the cosmos
Purple has always been linked with creativity and imagination, and Nebula Violet leans into that beautifully. The shimmer catches the light at every angle, so the pen seems to glow softly as you write.
Five colours, one galaxy
Nebula Violet sits alongside Supernova Crimson, Solar Flare Gold, Meteorite Moss and Cosmic Abyss in Sailor's Galaxy series, an overseas limited edition that is not sold in Japan.
Sailor craftsmanship
Sailor has been making pens in Japan since 1911, and its nibs are the reason so many collectors are devoted to the brand. This large stainless steel nib is hand-finished for a smooth, precise line with the characteristic Sailor feedback.
