The “#3776 Century” Fountain PenWhat qualities make for the ideal contemporary fountain pen? Sleek design, comfortable writing balance, smooth flow, and fast-drying ink… At the request of customers, we at Platinum Pen have gone back to the basics to address these issues. Every part and mechanism has been carefully studied and re-engineered. The result is the #3776 “Century,” designed on the base model of the popular #3776 series pens. |
The innovative cap contains a unique “Slip & Seal” mechanism that prevents ink from drying out in the pen. Meanwhile, a newly redesigned nib and feed regulate the ink flow. Founded in 1919, Platinum Pens is now nearing a full
century of achievement. The #3776 “Century” celebrates this approaching anniversary and continues Platinum Pens’ tradition of technological innovation. With Platinum Pens, the pleasure of writing and the use of fine writing instruments will always be evolving.
The new design “Matsu-Tora (pine tree and tiger)” has joined the premium Kanazawa-Haku fountain pen series that incorporates the exquisite beauty of Kanazawa gold leaf and masterful traditional techniques.
In Kanazawa-Haku fountain pen series, we have meticulously applied “Momi Chirashi,” Japan’s traditional technique that has been used in a folding screen or a painting on fusuma (Japanese sliding doors) since ancient time in Japan. After a gold leaf is extended to a thin square sheet, it is torn into smaller pieces and then pasted together. By pasting these random forms of the gold leaf together one by one by all hand, it creates a sense of unlimited depth, giving an elegant glow to the one-of-a-kind body.
The tiger and the pine tree, which are Japan’s representative auspicious motifs, drawn on the gold-leafed barrel make the pen a true masterpiece filled with elegance and dignity.
Barrel: Tiger
Tiger has been painted as an auspicious motif that represents wealth, status and posterity. Among the many paintings of tiger, we have selected “Rosho Mouko-zu (ferocious tiger)” drawn by Okyo Maruyama, a Japanese artist active in the Edo period, for the design to express vigor and loveliness of the tiger.
Cap: Pine tree
Like all evergreen trees, the pine trees that retain their foliage during winter have become the symbol of life and therefore have been used in many paintings. The green color of the leaves growing through the golden clouds make the tiger stand out even more.
Designed with the complete airtight Slip & Seal Mechanism that prevents ink from drying out in the pen, it allows writing with fresh new ink at any time.
Kanazawa-Haku fountain pen “Matsu-Tora” that brings together Japan’s traditional and most advanced techniques is a perfect gift.

CHENONCEAU WHITE: SYMBOL OF GRACE AND ELEGANCE
Inspired by the Chateau de Chenonceau in Loire in France, also known as the “castle of six ladies,” which was owned and loved by six noblewomen through the centuries, the new color Chenonceau White expresses the image of the white, elegant look of the castle. Its soft ivory color matches well with the gold finish, highlighting its grace. Being constructed over the river, the chateau and the waters create an exceptional scenery, which we believe suites the image of the #3776 series that retains moisture of the ink over time thanks to the Slip & Seal Mechanism. It is our hope that the elegant and luxurious Chenonceau White color, which was created in pursuit of a white tone that can be well-received both by men and women, adds a distinctive presence in your life.
Laurel Green: Symbol of Victory and Glory
Laurel Green is a fountain pen for winners. Laurel tree has been regarded as a symbol of victory and glory since ancient times. The wreath made from its leaves and branches was given particularly to crown exemplary litterateurs such as major poets who served the king. Likewise, gold is also the color of the medal given to honor individuals for their highest achievement. Therefore, this fountain pen that combines laurel green and gold colors is the most suitable piece that symbolizes honor, glory, and victory while increasing your status and power by continuously creating a culture. The Laurel Green fountain pen conveys our hope to support you in opening a way to new future and winning glory.

A new color “LAVENDE,” which was inspired by lavender flowers, will be added to our #3776 CENTURY “NICE” series, which has been well received since its launch.
Nice is a world-renowned resort and tourist city located in Cote d’Azur in southern France. In early summer, the Province region experiences its most beautiful season, with blooming fields of lavender that stretch all the way to the horizon. The light purple lavender flowers, gently blowing in the early summer wind and bathed in soft light, are expressed through a sandblast finish applied on the high transparency resin barrel. Thereafter, sharp accent lines are added through shaper cutting. The pen also features an exquisite pink gold metal trim. Lavande, the French word for lavender, is said to be the “queen of herbs,” which is highly fragrant and has been prized as a medicinal herb since ancient Roman times for its healing effect. In flower language, lavender denotes “silence” due to the tranquilizing effect as well as its magically strong scent. As the flower language implies, LAVENDE fountain pen creates a sense of calm, inviting one to breathe deeply into writing, making it unique among other NICE models. It comes with a blotter card with a serial number for the initial 3,000 production lots. <About NICE Series> <Barrel Design> <Specifications>

INTRODUCING
THE SECOND IN THE GOLD LEAF SERIES
THE ASCENDING DRAGON
NOW AVAILABLE
The beauty of the Kanazawa-haku (gold leaf) and the traditional application techniques have joined together with the expert fountain pen craftsman, to release a premium masterpiece, the Kanazawa-haku fountain pen “Ascending Dragon,” our second “Kanazawa-haku (gold leaf)” fountain pen series after “Fujin Raijin (the Wind God and the Thunder God)”
Ascending Dragon has been painted as an auspicious work inspired from ancient time. Using the “Unryu-zu (a folding screen along with the painting of a dragon in the clouds)” painted by Sotatsu Tawaraya as a motif, we applied “Kanazawa-haku Momi Chirashi” technique meticulously on each of the fountain pens. By utilizing a modern “makie” technique, we have created a distinguished and sophisticated “Rimpa” style fountain pen. The base is Kanazawa-haku using Momi Chirashi, a traditional technique that after a gold leaf is extended to a thin sheet, it is torn into smaller pieces. These are then pasted to the barrel of the pen, giving an elegant glow that reflects light with depth and adding a lively motion to the dragon, which makes a remarkable, one-of-a-kind fountain pen.

The Ascending Dragon is designed with the completely airtight Slip and Seal Mechanism, popular in the #3776 CENTURY series that prevents the ink from drying out or evaporating over time. This will allow your pen to write every day or once a year like you just inked it today.
The innovative cap contains a unique “Slip & Seal” mechanism that prevents ink from drying out in the pen. Meanwhile, a newly redesigned nib and feed regulate the ink flow. Founded in 1919, Platinum Pens is now nearing a full century of achievement. The #3776 “Century” celebrates this approaching anniversary and continues Platinum Pens’ tradition of technological innovation. With Platinum Pens, the pleasure of writing and the use of fine writing instruments will always be evolving. | |||
The #3776“ Century” Fountain Pen. What qualities make for the ideal contemporary fountain pen? Sleek design, comfortable writing balance, smooth flow, and fast-drying ink… At the request of customers, we at Platinum Pen have gone back to the basics to address these issues. Every part and mechanism has been carefully studied and re-engineered. The result is the #3776 “Century,” designed on the base model of the popular #3776 series pens. |
◆SLIP & SEAL MECHANISM
It has normally been thought difficult to make an airtight pen with a screw-type cap. If not sealed tightly, the following problems can result:
1. | Ink drying out due to moisture evaporation. | |
2. | Problems with dried ink if the pen is not used for three to six months. | |
3. | It can be necessary to clean the pen using our Ink Cleaner Kit or even to repair or replace the nib itself if the damage due to dried ink is too severe. |
At the request of customers, we at Platinum Pen Company have gone back to the basics to deal with this problem. This is the first fountain pen which has our unique “Slip & Seal” structure in a pen with a screw-type cap. Thanks to this innovation, currently being patented, it is possible to have a screw-type cap with complete airtightness.

BLACK DIAMOND
The “Black diamond” was made with a rich and luxurious texture barrel while incorporating the rhodium trim giving the newest addition to the #3776 Century pen line, the quality of a fine piece of jewelry in a luxury writing instrument. A black diamond is applied as a motif providing a unique deep black translucent barrel. At a glance, it appears to be a shiny black barrel. However, when lighting is cast upon the body, the transparent barrel creates the mysterious image of a black diamond.

CHARTRES BLUE
WITH RHODIUM TRIM
The “Chartres blue” has incorporated the image of the blue color of the stained glasses in the Chartres Cathedral in France, which are said to be the most beautiful glasses in the world. The Chartres Cathedral is one of the three major cathedrals in France and was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. The stained glasses that have a historic value are from the 11th to the 13th centuries and are known worldwide for their beauty. Particularly, the blue color, which is illuminated by light, expresses both deep and clear feelings and it is called “Chartres blue.” The #3776 CENTURY CHARTRES BLUE fountain pen was made with the image of the sacred color.
Rhodium finish is a coating using rhodium, a valuable precious metal. It is also known as the platinum coating or platinum finish. A rhodium finish in addition to its stunning beauty has many benefits in terms of functions such as its level of hardness, which is resistant to scratches and guarantees durability and brilliance which makes it the perfect silver-tone trim for a luxury fountain pen.
