Sailor Fountain Pen: TIGP Rare Discontinued 1990s [Unused] Made in Japan. Since it's unused, there's deliberately no ink filled. The abbreviation "TIGP" in Sailor fountain pens typically stands for "Takumi" (Craftsmanship), "Ingenuity" (Originality), "Guaranteed" (Assurance), and "Perfection" (Excellence). This represents Sailor's standards for their own products, symbolizing high quality and the culmination of artisanal skill. Words of founder Kugoro Sakata: "Fulfil your responsibility. As we celebrate our 110th anniversary, we return to the words of our founder, Kugoro Sakata" Sakata said that it is the responsibility of Sailor fountain pens, the first domestically produced fountain pen, to continue to provide society with the enjoyment of hand-crafted creative culture through the act of writing, and we will continue our efforts. Corporate vision and to further expand the market The Trinity of Truth, Skill and Beauty True (We will continue to sincerely pursue only the 'real thing'. Conversely, we must also have the courage to discard anything that is not genuine) Technology (No matter how many times we face it, there is no 'perfection'. That is the difference between 'technology' and 'work'. It is an attitude of always challenging the heights while being backed by tradition) Beauty (In all our products and corporate activities, we sublimate the Japanese sense of beauty. We aim to be the one and only fountain pen manufacturer that combines the three elements of beauty (we will continue to pursue beauty that moves the hearts of those who use and hold our products). New visual identity The 'anchor' is a symbol of trust and hope. In ancient Greece, where the word 'anchor' originated, it meant 'crooked arm', and the ancients felt invisible mystical energy and the blessings of the gods. The anchor, which held the ship together with great power, will continue to be a symbol of this.
