The long-awaited new colors “Shadow Mica” and “Carmine Red” are now available for PROCYON.PROCYON comes from the first-magnitude star Procyon in the constellation Canis Major. It was designed with an unprecedented new form and color, based on the concept of a fountain pen that attracts attention and can be used as an accent in business settings and daily life. In 2019, PROCYON won the “Japan Stationery Awards Functional Category Grand Prix.” The new colors “Shadow Mica” and “Carmine Red” are the familiar black and red colors, respectively, but have been treated with a special coating that gives them a particle-like shine and a smooth feel. PROCYON is equipped with a “Slip & Seal Mechanism” that allows you to write smoothly at any time, and a uniquely designed pen’s feeder “Last Drop Mechanism” that allows you to inhale every last drop. The metal body with an optimal weight balance design and pentagonal aperture nib stimulate the joy of writing, while the surface treatment with a focus on tactility stimulates the joy of holding.

“Last Drop” Mechanism to Enjoy Your Favorite Ink to the Last Drop

The “Last Drop” mechanism allows ink to be drawn in from the tip of the pen feed, reducing mess and simplifying the process of  lling from a bottle. This feature lets you enjoy bottle ink more e ciently and cleanly.

”Slip & Seal Mechanism” that gives a smooth writing experience at any time.

“Slip & Seal Mechanism,” which is one of the main features of our representative #3776 CENTURY fountain pen models, is also employed for PROCYON. This Platinum Pen’ s unique mechanism enabled a pen with a screw-type cap to offer superior airtightness using the inner cap. It provides smooth writing with fresh ink at any time.

The flexible pentagon-shaped large nib.

In 1962, Platinum Pen launched Japan’ s first fountain pen that employed a pentagon- shaped gold nib. The same production know-how for such a pen nib is also applied in the PROCYON fountain pen. Its resiliency realizes a writing feel similar to that of a gold nib in spite of being made with stainless steel.
