You may have heard from our earlier posts that we discovered a problem with our Home pens. Yesterday afternoon, we began to receive emails from a handful of customers who had just received their pre-orders and had noticed a discoloration in the trim and a difference in the nib. In all of our photos and videos featuring the Home pen, we had used the prototype model we received from the Sailor factory because the pens had not been produced yet. This model (and our design) featured a bicolor nib and standard gold trim, but all the Home pens we received...

As many of you know, we released our 甲 Home Fountain Pen on pre-order back in April of this year and at the same time, decided to release our previous Origin and Refresh fountain pens from our 2021 and 2022 releases.This year’s theme, Home, is all about celebrating our home, Yoseka—our business, our community, our team, our dreams, our friendships and partnerships—and so much more that Yoseka means to us. We hope you think of your home when you write with your new pens. We are happy to announce that your pre-orders are now on their way to you with...

As a small token of gratitude, we will be including a special thank you goodie bag in all of your pre-orders. This goodie bag contains an assortment of fun stationeries designed by Ashley and May to go with our release. Seeing each piece arrive over the past few months has been a treat for us and trust me when I say there have been many squeals of delight unboxing every piece that will be going into these goodie bags.To anyone who has collected all three of our released pens since 2021, we can’t thank you enough for your continued support...

Some exciting things recently! First, Neil and I are off to Japan on a family trip with Jacob in a couple of days. These last few days have been a whirlwind of packing, list-making, watching YouTube videos with titles like "how to travel Japan with a toddler" and Googling questions like "how to rent a stroller in Japan." Spoilers, I've just decided to bring our own! (Shout out to everyone who commented on our last Catching Up YouTube video with tips for traveling with a toddler--I read every single one of them and got the amazing idea to bring Jacob his...

In this video, Team Yoseka shares how we've been using and keeping up with our planners so far in 2023!

Founded in 1911 in Kure City, Hiroshima, Sailor is Japan's first fountain pen manufacturer and today continues to be one of three major Japanese fountain pen companies next to Pilot and Platinum. Over the years at Yoseka, we've spent a lot of time talking about Sailor as a company and their special fountain pens, which we happen to love. Today's blogpost is going to be on Sailor's top of the range flagship model, their King of Pen fountain pen. You may have heard of this Sailor model and perhaps you've seen this huge fountain pen and may be wondering what...

This year, our word and focus is "Home," because that is a word that perfectly encapsulates how we feel about Yoseka, as a place where we feel completely comfortable and a safe space where we can pursue our wildest dreams. As part of our Home theme this year, our team members have designed different items that speak to what Home and Yoseka mean for them and this month, quite a few of them have been released! Above are some of the releases that you've seen from us so far--Yoseka Stationery Zoo Series from Authan, Shop Apparel from Ashley, our TSL Roll...

Abbey Sy will be in New York and teaching two travel journaling workshops at Yoseka on Monday, July 31 and Tuesday, August 1st!
