Frequently asked questions
What pens fit the Chanomegumi pen sheath?
It is designed to hold one pen, and Pilot says it can take up to two slim pens. Its outer size is 165 × 50 × 30 mm, and Pilot designed the limited Cocoon Chanomegumi pens to be carried in it.
Is the sheath made from tea leaves?
No. It is real cowhide leather; recycled tea leaves are used in the tanning process, not as the material itself.

Chanomegumi (茶の恵, "the blessings of tea") is Pilot's leather goods series made with Lezza Botanica® upcycled leather, tanned with liquid pressed from the used tea leaves left over from Ito En green tea production. The limited Cocoon pens were designed to match the series' Chanomegumi pen sheath; the pens themselves are not made from recycled tea leaves.
