Platinum 3776 Shoryu-zu
“Ascending Dragon” has been painted as an auspicious work inspired
from the ancient time. Using the “Unryu-zu (a folding screen along with
the painting of a dragon in the clouds)” painted by Sotatsu Tawaraya as a
motif, we applied “Kanazawa-haku Momi Chirashi” technique meticulously
on each of the fountain pens. By utilizing a modern “makie” technique,
we have created a distinguished and sophisticated “Rimpa” style fountain
pen. The base is Kanazawa-haku using Momi Chirashi, a traditional
technique that after a gold leaf is extended to a thin sheet, it is torn
into smaller pieces. These are then pasted to the barrel of the pen,
giving an elegant glow that reflects light with depth and adding a
lively motion to the dragon, which makes a remarkable, one-of-a-kind
fountain pen.
Designed with the complete airtight Slip & Seal Mechanism of the popular “#3776 CENTURY” series that prevents ink from drying out in the pen, it allows those who only use their pen once or twice a year writing with fresh new ink. By applying the traditional technique developed over time, the fountain pen has an elegant finishing reminiscent of a painting of antique folding screen.
