I’ve wanted Cypress’ E06 pen model for quite a while now. Between the swirled design and combination of nacre and eggshell, I’ve been drawn to it since the first time I saw it.
But, it’s a pricey pen, and I never quite saved up the money for it. Other, limited edition or custom, pens kept getting in the way. And then, earlier this year, it went on sale, and my awesome husband bought it for me as a birthday/anniversary gift. So, this beauty is part of my collection and gets a pen porn post.
While I don’t feel it makes sense to film a 360° video for the E06, I did put together a 360° photo set so you can appreciate the precision.
The strips of nacre are beautifully cut and aligned, and, of course, feature a rainbow of colors. Even better, the E06 has a single start, so the strips on the cap and barrel align perfectly every time.
Both finials are covered in eggshell.
The section surprised me. It’s not fully black, having green sparkles in the material.
And, finally, as part of the new year sale, the E06 came with the Cypress 5th anniversary dragon nib.
If raden and rankaku-nuri are your jam, then I highly recommend the E06. You won’t be disappointed.
Do you own any Cypress pens? If not, do you want one? If so, is this one of them? Let me know in the comments! I’d love to hear from you.
Thanks for reading to the end, I hope you enjoyed my post. Make sure to subscribe to my blog or follow me on Instagram so you don’t miss any posts. I generally post at least once a week.
I have 11 Cypress pens, most of them on the lower end of the price range but I love them all. The website has hundreds of variations and they are like candy to me.
