Namiki Nippon Art Chinese Phoenix Fountain Pen

Utilizing painstaking traditional techniques the Nippon Art line pays homage to the legacy of Namiki writing instruments. In using the method of Hari Maki-e, a practice that requires the utmost skill and patience, Namiki has ensured that every writing instrument produced in this line will be a treasure to any who possess them.

The Nippon Art Bonsaiufountain pen features a gorgeous depiction of the fenghuang, or the “Chinese phoenix,” a traditional creature of Sinospheric mythology said to have, “made up of the beak of a rooster, the face of a swallow, the forehead of a fowl, the neck of a snake, the breast of a goose, the back of a tortoise, the hindquarters of a stag and the tail of a fish.”It is believed that the bird only appears in areas or places that are blessed with utmost peace and prosperity or happiness.

This Yukari-sized pen has a 14k gold nib in size #10, fills via cartridge/converter (a CON-70 is included), and comes packaged in a wooden box. Each pen takes months to create.
