JAPANESE TRADITION fountain pens by Namiki benefit from the remarkable technical know-how of one of the last manufactures on the globe that masters all of the phases intervening in the making of its products, from nibs to converters.

 

Courtesan

 

For these fountain pens to be accessible to a greater number of amateurs, the motif they bear is stenciled upon a resin base. This method of hand reproduction minimizes the time required for creating the design, full attention being given to the final aspect of the completed piece, for the decor and ornamental work done along the Maki-e techniques remains identical from one collection to another.

 

Dipro

 

Nevertheless, although the method for applying the decor differs, the lacquer is applied after the same rules. It is laid in thin coats, one after another, left to dry and minutely sanded down with charcoal made from the wood of the camellia or the cherry tree, then polished in the bare hand until the surface slips like satin between one's fingers.
