The Brass Pencil TOKYO Edition is adorned with Tokyo's distinct highlights in a red colored design on the barrel. It comes with a fluorescent orange eraser, of which three refills are included. Just like the original , it is made from solid brass with a nickel plated cap. Its uniquely clever design features a distinctly small size with the cap on, but once removed and attached onto the back, it transforms into a comfortable, full-size pencil. Its small footprint makes it an excellent choice to take with you on your travels.

The brass pencils are made in a small factory on the outskirts of Tokyo. This facility was originally built as bullet plant during WWII, but was transformed into a pen factory afterwards. To this day, the design of the BRASS pens features a bullet-like aesthetic, a clear indicator of the original purpose of the machines that produce these cases — and a beautiful way to repurpose them.

For many years, TRAVELER’S COMPANY has been creating and sharing their dream world with travellers from around the globe – a hotel, their own airline, train and record shop, all of which can be found in TRAVELER’S TOWN. Continuing to build on that dream and taking inspiration from their home base in Tokyo, TRAVELER’S COMPANY invites us all to wander through Japan’s capital city with a new limited edition line-up: the TOKYO Edition.

TRAVELER'S COMPANY Brass Products x MIsc Store Amsterdam

The TRAVELER'S COMPANY Brass Products, such as their pens, pencase and ruler are made in Japanese factories.

The touch and comfortableness, the click when the fountain pen or rollerball pen is capped, the pen case’s curve just like a vintage car and the ruler’s precise straight line are the fruits of the skilled craftsmen and technicians of the factory, who make the slightest adjustments. After the processes of pressing and sharpening by both the most up-to date machines and very old tools, finally the products are inspected and assembled by hand.

In order to allow people to use the products with care for a long period of time, TRAVELER'S COMPANY made the design of these products simple and made use of the brass material's properties.

There’s something extraordinary about brass-based products. It resembles warmth, and the change in color and texture through a long time use enriches one’s affection towards the product. Imagine the beautiful appearance of the brass products ten years from now. We believe this will make the use of the TRAVELER'S COMPANY's Brass Products something more exciting.
