Kanilea's Kai Huli: Treasures from the Tide
PEN WORLD|August 2022
While walking the coastline during trips to Hawaii, Hugh and Karol Scher of Kanilea Pen Co. enjoy roaming the beaches early in the morning to see what treasures the ocean tide turned up in the night.
Kanilea's Kai Huli: Treasures from the Tide

That experience provides the impetus for Kanilea's first new pen collection type since its launch in 2016.

In Hawaiian, Kai Huli means "a sea that dashes and recedes" and describes the daily tidal process that brings treasures such as sea shells, driftwood, and other items to the beach each morning. The new Kanilea Kai Huli collection of fountain pens is likewise ever-changing and specially created to reflect the colors and textures of the Hawaiian Islands.

Rice Village in Houston, Texas, is always buzzing with holiday shoppers in the weeks leading up to Christmas, so it was no surprise to me that not a single parking spot was available in front of family-owned Dromgoole's Fine Writing Instruments and Stationery store for its holiday shopping event on December 9, 2023.
