WATERMAN a brand that prides itself on originality and craftsmanship supported by high technical skill, pursuing uncompromising quality in every detail. All of the brand's pens are made in France, at its factory in Nantes. From the attention to each material, the intricate engraving on the metal, the delicate nibs, to the wide variety of inks, the brand has earned a high reputation for its unwavering technical expertise since its founding.

Among them, the "Metropolitan Deluxe" boasts a luxurious and distinctive finish characteristic of WATERMAN , with delicate designs on the body and cap. Its distinctive color schemes, which maximize the appeal of each motif, provide a precious moment of quiet exhilaration every time you use it.


Furthermore, during this period, we will be specially showcasing works by Mayumi Takigawa, an artist specializing in floral pattern art. While Takigawa usually creates art pieces using glass pens, this time she is trying her hand at fountain pen art for the first time. The rich, nuanced colors unique to WATERMAN inks highlight the delicate beauty of her floral pattern art.
This time, I'd like to introduce a work specially created for the exhibition and sale at Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building .

Additionally, on March 9th (Sat), 10th (Sun), 16th (Sat), and 17th (Sun), Mr. Takigawa will be visiting the store, and we will be holding art workshops where customers can experience the fun of fountain pen ink for themselves.

■ Mayumi Takigawa's Profile

Originally from Kanagawa Prefecture, currently residing in Fujisawa City. Graduated from Japan College of Welfare Design.

In 2014, she encountered glass pens and her "flower pattern art" was born. In February 2016, she participated in the British art event "Parallax Art Fair".

■Floral Pattern Art

Mayumi Takigawa's art is self-taught and self-developed. Using a glass pen and colored ink, she hand-draws flower shapes (flower patterns) with five petals about 4 mm in size, creating unique, pointillist-like artworks. Using glass pens, which have recently been attracting renewed attention for their delicacy and beauty, she skillfully depicts realistic animals such as whales, tigers, birds, and pandas, as well as people, in rich colors using tiny five-petal patterns of about 3-4 mm in diameter. She mixes and uses over 200 colors.
