Dive into the world of dip pens with Kakimori's Sakura Wood Nib Holder. A timeless and understated design, this wooden nib holder's ergonomic shape and balanced length fits comfortably in the hand—making it the perfect companion for long, unhurried writing sessions.

Designed to fit most standard nibs, this nib holder works especially well with Kakimori's metal nibs or pen nib, and rests nicely on a desktop with their Hasami Pen Rest.

As part of our Slow Living Collection, Kakimori's dip pens encourage us to take a moment out of our busy days to intentionally practice the art of writing by hand. 

Sakura Wood - a natural finish that ages beautifully

White Sakura Wood - crafted from the sapwood of the Japanese cherry tree

Aizome - cherrywood hand dyed by an indigo artisan

Materials:  Japanese cherrywood stem, plastic nib mount

Made by:  Kakimori

Made in:  Japan

Specifications:  7" long

Nib not included. Due to the nature of the material and treatment, grain and color will vary between pieces.

Care: 

  • If marked with ink, wipe clean with a soft cloth.
  • When removing the nib from the nib holder, gently pull it out while turning to avoid dislodging the nib mount.
  • After rinsing, shake well in a downward motion to remove any water or ink from the nib mount before inserting a nib.
  • The color of the Aizome nib holder will gently fade to a true indigo with use. If the wood becomes dry, polish with beeswax to restore its luster.
