TUZURU is a select shop with stationery, fountain pens, envelopes, and letter writing paper sheets. The store opened in 2008 as a casual place to buy fountain pens. A lineup of various fountain pens selected by the knowledgeable shop owners are showcased, ranging from simple to authentic styles.

As for writing paper, the shop stocks unique items, such as neutral paper (which causes less ink bleeds and is preservable for long periods of time), which is a favorite among heavy users of fountain pens.
