Pentonote is located in Fukushima City, Japan. Managing Director Ogata comes from a family that has been in the stationery business for almost 100 years, but it’s the love of fountain pens and inks that really ignited his passion. He has expanded the business to include cafes and reading rooms all in the hopes of introducing more people to the joys of pen and ink through the concept of “living with pens and notebooks”. With several store-exclusive Sailor and Pilot pens, and a beautiful selection of inks including several series of their own Pentonote inks, there is a lot to enjoy here. They ship overseas, too.
