    A very special fountain pen from Sailor: based on the King of Pen size, this one is finished in a special Maki-e technique: the Tamenuri technique. Here, a base color is applied to the ebonite body of the fountain pen. In this fountain pen, it is a warm green tone. On top of this, several layers of a semi-transparent dark brown Urushi lacquer are applied. Each layer must dry for at least 10 days and is elaborately polished before the next layer is applied. As a result, the original color on the edges shines immediately.
    But the special thing is that the semi-transparent varnish becomes more transparent over time, showing more and more of the base coat. This process cannot be controlled, but is a very individual aging. In the process, the brushstroke from the application of the layers of varnish also becomes more and more visible.
    Limited to 88 pieces, this fountain pen is hand-signed and numbered by the Maki-e artist.
    It is filled with cartridges or with the converter provided. The fountain pen comes in an elaborate wooden box with "kimono" (silk pen cover).
