"The Spirit of Japan"
Inspired by the variety of colour and nature on Mount Fuji, often
referred to as the "Soul of Japan", this remarkable Limited
Edition product from Sailor depicts the combination of seasonal
colour, nature and dramatic landscape of this majestic Japanese
mountain setting. The four special designs representing the changing
seasonal images are hand decorated in the traditional MAKI-E techniques
by master craftsman - Isshu Tamura. The smooth unbroken lines of
this new ebonite pen allow full appreciation of the artist’s
designs.
The nib section for this product is specially made by Nobuyoshi
Nagahara. It is called the Cross Point nib and is crafted from two
nibs together and then specially ‘slit’ to form the Cross
Point. The nib is finally finished by very high polishing to provide
the "the very best of writing of smoothness and perfection"
as expected of a Sailor Pen. |
