Product Description
The Namiki Aya Tokiwa (Evergreen) Fountain Pen represents the newest chapter in Namiki’s celebrated Maki-e artistry, blending centuries-old Japanese lacquer traditions with modern writing excellence. Crafted by the highly respected Kokkokai group of master artisans, this fountain pen is a true collector’s piece, created for those who appreciate art, heritage, and precision in every detail.
The design “Tokiwa,” a Japanese word meaning that which never changes, symbolises evergreen mountain landscapes that retain their vitality even through winter. Using traditional Maki-e Urushi lacquer techniques, layers of dried green lacquer powders are applied in varying intensities to create stunning gradient effects that reflect mountainous terrain. The background is further enhanced with crushed abalone shell and gold flat powders, evoking the brilliance of a star-lit night sky. Each pen showcases subtle variations, making every piece uniquely beautiful.
The pen body is crafted from ebonite, a premium material prized for its warmth and balance, and finished with multiple layers of Urushi lacquer that are painstakingly polished using the togidashi Maki-e technique. This process brings depth, luminosity, and durability to the artwork, ensuring the pen ages gracefully over time.
At its heart, the Namiki Aya fountain pen features an oversized No. 30 two-tone 18K gold nib, engraved with the iconic Mount Fuji silhouette. Renowned for its smoothness and responsiveness, the nib delivers an effortless and luxurious writing experience. Available in Fine Medium, Medium, or Broad nib sizes, it caters to discerning writers and seasoned collectors alike.
Designed for both artistic appreciation and practical use, this classical vest-style fountain pen is refillable and compatible with Pilot ink cartridges and the Pilot CON-70 converter, both included for convenience. The pen is presented in a beautiful Namiki wooden gift box, making it an exceptional choice for collectors, milestone gifts, or personal indulgence.
