Cathay Pens began with a simple, yet powerful idea. When Byron and Manu connected over their shared passion for Urushi craftsmanship, they instantly envisioned a brand that would redefine Urushi pens with designs never seen before. Their mutual commitment to innovation led to the creation of Cathay Pens, where each piece is brought to life by our talented in-house designer and master Urushi craftsman. Together, they are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of traditional pen artistry.
