Description: Although the pen barrels are known to have been made of Carbon Fiber before, mostly the plain weave was applied. We, Nakaya, have produced traditional Sugiayagata design by using an Ayaori diagonal weave. A lone woven thread is thin and can be used to create a detailed design, but requires an enormous skill to work with.
Sugiayagata is a pattern originated from the leaves of Japanese cryptomeria, which it resembles in form, and is called a Herringbone weave in the West. It seems to have a more modern and familiar touch than the fabric patterns that were popular in ancient times.
