New Gelly Roll Silver Shadow--The Pen with "Wow" Effect

Sakura of America, the inventors of gel ink, introduce a new gel pen, Silver Shadow. Silver Shadow creates a border of color around a line of silver.

(PRWEB) September 9, 2005 -- Sakura of America announced today the introduction of Silver Shadow, its newest gel pen. With typical product innovation, Sakura's research & development team have developed a pen that separates ink as it hits the page---creating a border of color around a silver metallic line.

Sakura has chosen "Wow Effect" as Silver Shadow's slogan because Peter Ouyang, Sakura's Marketing Director, believes this is the response this revolutionary pen will elicit from people who try it. "Sakura's Research & Development Department in Osaka has been refining this product for years to achieve the best results. People who try Silver Shadow will quickly make it their preferred pen for embellishing papercrafts, or for signing greeting cards, fine stationery, notes or letters. Anywhere a handwritten powerful expression is a must to convey.

Sakura invented gel ink and Silver Shadow contains its patented formulation which dries quickly as it lays down a bold 0.7mm line. While silver describes the inside of the pen's line, shadow refers to the five border colors that can be had: blue, orange, pink, green, or purple. Pens will be sold individually with manufacturer's suggested retail price, or MSRP, of $1.69 per pen, or in a five-pen set with a MSRP of $8.45.

Headquartered in Hayward, CA, Sakura of America is the U.S. subsidiary of privately held Sakura Color Products Corp. of Osaka, Japan. Besides Silver Shadow, Sakura manufactures many other writing instruments, markers and art materials. Go to www.sakuraofamerica.com for more info.
