Nakaya Neo Standard Shu PolishedShu (red) is the brightest color that Nakaya offers. Made up of many layers of red pigmented urushi lacquer, it is no wonder that it shows so brightly. Each layer is applied to the surface, allowed to dry and then is polished before the next is applied. The combination of red, a traditional pen color since the 1920's, with this subtle shape creates a design that begs to be held. This Neo Standard model is available with a range of clip and nib plating
