Midori’s rollerball pen in the limited edition Factory Green- a hue inspired by the distinctive calming minty-turquoise color of the steel storage shelves, iron door, and floor beneath the printing machines at Designphil's Nagareyama Plant. The pen has a brass body and a Factory Green cover that closes over the tip for a compact, bullet-like appearance and can be posted to the back when writing. The pen features a metal clip and top loop to attach to a chain if desired.
Approx. 4” closed with cap
Approx. 5.5” posted
Accepts international standard short cartridges. Refills available here.
Since the 1950’s Midori has been asking themselves, “How can we update and hone the comfort of writing?” Part of their answer lay in using broad leafed trees with softer pulp rather than conifers. Another part came through using filtered river water rather than treated water. Yet another was to take away the cover from the notebook, which often makes notebooks harder to open and decreases the comfort of writing. Instead they use a cheesecloth tape, often found on the inside of book bindings. Every stage of production is monitored by the human hand. How does the pulp feel immersed in water? How does the page feel when you run your hands across it? How does the pen feel as it slides over the paper?
