Namiki – Yukari Shooting Star
Introducing the Namiki Yukari Shooting Star maki-e fountain pen, meticulously crafted by renowned artisan Misa in Japan and launched in November 2016.
This exquisite pen showcases the Togidashi Maki-e technique, characterized by its burnished finish, and features Raden accents that depict a mesmerizing cosmic scene adorned with sparkling shooting stars.
With an 18k gold nib in size #10, the pen offers a smooth writing experience and can be conveniently filled using either a cartridge or converter (includes a CON-70 converter). It arrives elegantly packaged in a wooden box along with a bottle of ink.
The Yukari Collection eloquently captures the essence of the four seasons, deeply rooted in Japanese culture, by blending intricate designs with various techniques like Togidashi-Taka Maki-e (Burnished-Raised Maki-e) and Raden (Mother-of-Pearl). While its compact size allows for daily use and portability, every aspect of this pen showcases the utmost attention to detail, reflecting the exquisite beauty of Japan.
Each of these pens is a true work of art and comes with a lifetime warranty from Namiki, ensuring its longevity and your satisfaction.
