Namiki Aya Maki-e Fountain Pen - Akatsuki Red
The Namiki Aya fountain pen collection is the newest maki-e model from Namiki, with designs lacquered by the highly reveredĀ Kokkokai group. The barrel artwork was designed using traditional maki-e urushi lacquer work and finished with a sprinkling of gold and silver dust using the togidashi polishing technique. Each pen features different colored urushi lacquer to create the rich hues of nature.
Akatsuki (Daybreak): the moment when light first appears in the morning. This Japanese word is also used for a eureka moment or realization achievement. The body of the Akatsuki is a deep, burnished red. Dried red lacquered powders are applied with different intensities, and gold powders and goldround powders are used in the background before the body is coated in urushi lacquer and burnished and polished to a shine.
The Namiki Aya Collection has a classical vest-type body style and is enhanced with an oversized No. 30 two-tone 18k gold nib featuring the iconic silhouette of Mount Fuji, available in Fine Medium, Medium, or Broad nib sizes. The Aya fountain pen collection offers effortless, smooth writing and is designed to delight the fountain pen collector.
This classical fountain pen is refillable for continued use with a Pilot ink cartridge or Pilotās CON-70 converter, both of which are included, and arrives packaged in a beautiful Namiki wooden giftbox.
