Promotional article almost completely devoid of acceptable sources; things like this are just spam. Doesn't pass the GNG, and the editor tried this before. For the record, there seems to me to be a discrepancy between the editor's English outside of article space and the language in the article. Drmies (talk) 01:28, 19 June 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete I found five GNews hits for the company's name in katakana, all relating to sale of a type of fountain pen that supposedly went out of fashion in the post-war era. Nothing we can build an article on the company about -- Fountain pens in Japan, if such an article ever exists, might have one line mentioning them. Additionally, the claim in the lead that their pens are "with Japanese art such as Urushi" -- urushi is the Japanese word for the lacquer plant and, by extension, lacquerware, but, as is made clear by looking at the pens, the material out of which the pens coverings are made is not exactly "Japanese art" -- they're just pen coverings, and I seriously doubt the decorative stars, maple leaves, and snowflakes are lacquer.
