FOUNTAIN PEN

DANI INTERNATIONAL CORP. was founded in 1974, and is a privately-held,    independent California corporation. DANITRIO is our division of designing and manufacturing fine writing instruments & accessories. 

DENSHO Toki (A Japanese crested ibis)

Densho is another ebonite pen with Maki-e designs. This time, we started Densho with the simplest Maki-e design, followed by Hira Maki-e and the slightly more complicated Togidashi Maki-e, then to the dimensional Taka Maki-e, and finally to the most difficult Shishiai Togidashi Maki-e using many standard designs.

Gradation and Tsukegaki techniques are used for the ground with water and the grass. The bird uses #7 gold powder for Tsukegaki and the body was beautifully painted with beige and red Urushi.

The pen has the eye dropper mechanism. This mechanism is normally seen in large pen. DaniTrio has done it on Densho size for pen lovers around the world.
 

Artist - Kosaku Kitahama - Koichiro Okazaki.

Signature: Kogaku.
Title: Dento Kogei-shi. Born in 1959.
He learnt Maki-e from a master and was recognized with Kao (authorized monogram) Omote School in 1991 by Kuda Munenori of Sado (Tea ceremony). His works have been accepted by the National Art Exhibiton each year since then.
