Tetzbo - Stumpy Hammertone Ballpoint Pen

This brass ballpoint pen from Tetzbo is a true masterpiece. The Stumpy Hammertone was handcrafted by artist and blacksmith Yoshikazu Takai. The cap is integrated into the barrel with remarkable precision.

The ballpoint pen has a light brown color due to the brass and will develop a patina over time. When closed, it is approximately 10 cm long and 11.5 cm when opened. It has a diameter of 1 cm. It weighs approximately 50 g. It is filled with a 0.7 mm Mitsubishi Jetstream SXR-80-07 refill.

Tetzbo was founded by Japanese artist Yoshikazu Takai. Originally a sculptor, his sculptures can be found in public spaces throughout Japan. From large-scale sculptures, he turned to fine stationery. His incredibly beautiful and unique pens reflect his sculptural background, yet retain the depth and complexity one would expect from his work.
