Sold out again, so we made five more

Hi everyone, this is Taka!

An honest one today. The Cathedral glass pen sold out within days of the last batch, and enough of you wrote in asking for it that I went back to Hideki and asked for more. He handblows every single one himself, so this time there are only five. Once they are gone, they are gone until he can make the next batch.

I am just as excited about the notebook below. The Ko Aoi Homeicho is wrapped in one hundred percent Nishijin silk, woven by Konkan Shoten, a Kyoto atelier with a 270-year legacy. Konkan Shoten calls it a Homeicho, the treasure name book once kept at temples and shrines to preserve important names, so it is made to be written in with care. The small hollyhock, the Ko Aoi, is the leaf of Kyoto's Aoi Matsuri festival. The gold is back in stock, and today I am adding a brand new vermilion that shifts toward copper as the light moves.
