In the 1980s, Sakura surprised the pen industry with the invention of the first gel-based ink creating the first and original gel pen. Since then, the creamy, colorful Gelly Roll pen has remained a favorite of people of all ages, occupations, and interests for its bright color selection and the unique properties of the gel ink.

These smooth, colorful Gelly Roll gel ink pens will be your favorite utensil for letting thoughts flow onto paper. This gel ink is waterproof, fade resistant, and chemical proof, so it is ideal for checks, legal documents, scrapbooks—wherever permanence is important.

Gelly Roll pens are great for hand lettering; wedding and party crafts; scrapbooking, arts, and crafts; layering on mixed media; adding highlights to illustrations and comics; and notes, journals, letters, invitations, and handmade cards. What's more, these gel pens don't bleed through paper.
