Our whimsical glass pens are writing tools that combines craftsmanship with functionality and a little bit of magic. Designed by Wanderlust and crafted by Hanabi Glass Studio, these glass pens are made with precision and attention to detail, perfect for those who appreciate the art of writing.

This design is called “marimo”. A marimo is a tiny, velvety sphere of green algae that grows only in one place in the world: Lake Akan, in Hokkaidō, Japan. The lake’s gentle waves roll the algae over and over, shaping it into a perfect ball across many quiet years. They’re seen as small guardians of calm, slow, patient, softly alive, carrying the hush of a northern lake inside them. That’s why marimo are considered a natural wonder of Japan: underwater creatures of patience, shaped by a single lake’s rhythm.

Wanderlust has created the Marimo Glass Pen to bring a touch of this tiny, magical creature to your desk, a little calm and cuteness for your journaling moments. The pen is crafted in collaboration with Hanabi Glass Studio, in Yokohama. And because real marimo are considered plants and cannot be exported, the “marimo” inside each pen is handmade by Esther Molina using natural fibers and so much love.

Wishing you a joyful time with your Marimo Glass Pen. How will you name your new green furry friend?

Glass pens are compatible with various types of inks, like fountain pen ink or calligraphy ink, for example. Enjoy using multiple inks at the same time by just rinsing the glass pen in water and drying it with a cloth or tissue in between colors.

Cleaning the glass pen is very easy. Simply rinse it with water after each use to remove any residual ink. The transparent design makes it easy to check the cleanliness of the nib, ensuring optimal performance every time you write.
