NAMIKI MAKI-E YUKARI Zodiac TIGER Fountain pen. New with wood box, ink & papers

Description: At the start of the 20th century, a fountain pen utilizing the Japanese traditional art of “Maki-e” was born. The strong and attractive body with a lacquer finish, and the fine and elegant design by the craftsmen are highly acclaimed around the world, and those skills and spirit have been passed down to the world’s most famous name in Maki-e fountain pens: Namiki.The Yukari Collection vividly expresses the nature of the four seasons,which the Japanese have been familiar with since ancient times,by combining designs with various techniques such as Togidashi-Taka Maki-e (Burnished-Raised Maki-e) and Raden (Mother-of-Pearl).While being a size that can be carried and used every day, it harbors Japanese beauty down to the finest detail.The fountain pens in the Zodiac collection by Namiki are delicate works of art, signed by their author, whose motif, borrowed from the symbols of Japanese tradition, has been engraved free-hand on copper-plate. The Namiki Yukari Zodiac collection consists of the 12 signs of the Japanese zodiac, which uses birth years, rather than the western birth months. The maki-e artwork on the pen is built up from many layers of lacquer and takes months to create. The Namiki Yukari is equipped with a #10 nib and uses the cartridge/converter filling system.
