NAMIKI
MOUNT FUJI
FOUNTAIN PEN
MOUNT FUJI fountain pen
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.
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.
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.
