Wancher Sekai - Ai Fountain Pen

Base - Olivewood

In an age where there are new man-made discoveries almost everyday, the World Tree collection is a way of appreciating the past, and reminding us from whence we came. The World Tree - Olive Wood was crafted to honor the significance of the olive tree in ancient Greece, but now, with the World Tree Ai, the spirit of Japan and Greece are combined to be even greater than the sum of its parts. 

The Sekai Ai uses the base of Olive Wood and is dyed into a distinct shade of blue, as it is a culturally significant color, and it represents how Japanese culture strengthens their ties with their heritage.  

As each pen is separately dyed, the shade of blue will never be exactly the same, which makes the already-unique Olive Wood material even more difficult to copy. This indigo dyeing process known as Aizome was chosen instead of using ordinary paint is to honor the wood's natural grain and pattern, which paint would otherwise conceal. Aizome makes it appear as if the wood itself was originally blue.
