Discover the Kuretake Kumeginga Brush Pen Set - Shikatsuno (Deer Antlers), a unique writing instrument inspired by the sacred deer of Nara, Japan. Since 710 A.D., these majestic creatures have held a revered place in Japanese culture, particularly associated with Takemikazuchi, one of the four gods of Kasuga Shrine, who is said to have arrived on a white deer.

Local Craftsmanship
Based in Nara since 1902, Kuretake sought to create a product that reflects its rich local heritage. The Kumeginga brush pen features a barrel crafted from genuine deer antlers, each with its own unique color variations and patterns. The antlers provide a delicate, jade-like texture that feels warm and inviting in hand.

Versatile and Refillable
This brush pen is designed for convenience and versatility, allowing you to refill it with your favorite ink for any writing occasion. Whether you’re sketching, journaling, or practicing calligraphy, this pen adapts to your creative needs.

Elegant Packaging
The Kumeginga Brush Pen Set is elegantly packaged in a traditional Japanese-style wooden gift box. The set includes:

  • Two spare pen nibs (one soft tip and one hard tip)
  • Three ink cartridges

Founded in 1902 by the sumi craftsman Narakichi Watatani in Nara, Japan, Kuretake has its origin rooted in the traditional Japanese art of sumi ink making. A century later, Kuretakeremains committed to produce high quality calligraphy supplies and art materials to express the traditional colors of Sumi-e Japanese ink painting.

They are best known for their Bokuteki (liquid sumi ink), first released in 1958, and the Fude Pens (brush pens), first released in 1980, both of which have remained as popular staple for over 4 decades. Kuretakelives true to their moto to preserve and promote the “warmth of handwriting” and “goodness of handcrafting”.
