Wancher Kaleido Fountain Pen | Akikodachi

Wancher Kaleido Akikodachi captures the colors of an autumn grove in a twelve-sided acrylic body. An irregular pattern reminiscent of leaves combines shades of brown and orange with shimmering black, creating a surface that changes with the angle of light. Each piece features a unique arrangement of marbled streaks, ensuring that no two pens are identical.

Akikodachi, meaning Autumn Groves, was created to celebrate Wancher's 14th anniversary. The autumn color palette draws inspiration from the landscape of southern Japan, where the brand was founded. Its warm tones evoke the rustle of dry leaves, tree bark, and the wooden tabletop of a favorite café.

The twelve-sided Kaleido form

The twelve straight edges are inspired by the symbolic beauty of Japan: rays of the sun, towering cedars, and the pillars of traditional architecture. The name Kaleido combines Greek words relating to beauty and shape. The hard acrylic is hand-shaped and polished multiple times, allowing each facet to reflect light, while gently undulating lines soften the geometric form.

Airtight cap

The larger, twelve-sided body design requires an elongated thread with more rotations. This ensures a smooth transition between the grip section and the barrel, improves writing comfort, and enhances the cap's seal, reducing premature drying of ink on the nib.
