About the Product

Based on an ancient Ainu (indigenous people of Hokkaido) design, this ballpoint pen is an inspiring collaboration between Shiraoi's Ainu community, the whiskey history of Hokkaido and a local disability employment organization. 


The engraved Ainu pattern is based on the matanpushi, a ceremonial headdress which was traditionally gifted by Ainu women to their menfolk prior to hunting expeditions. Each Ainu community had unique headdress designs, and this pen's design is connected to the Shiraoi Ainu, located an hour south of Sapporo.  


The pen casing - produced by the Mitsubishi Pencil Co. - is made from recycled whiskey barrels that reached the end of their lifespans after 50-60 years of use. The whiskey barrels were constructed from century-old oaks and have a special historical significance in Hokkaido owing to the Nikka Whiskey Distillery, one of our island's most famous brands. 


A classy gift for any professional, the quality workmanship and ageless design ensure that this pen can be used for a lifetime.
