Platinum Kanazawa Fujin Raijin 3776 Century Fountain Pen

Platinum Kanazawa Fujin Raijin 3776 Century Fountain Pen
The Platinum Fujin Raijin (The Wind God and the Thunder God) features the beauty of the Kanazawa-haku (gold leaf) using (Momi Chirashi) traditional techniques. Usually, a gold leaf is made by beating and extending the foil to a thickness of just one ten thousandth of a millimeter. This is done by using a foil beating machine with the edges trimmed to a square. The square gold leaf is then broken again into fragments and pasted together. Momi Chirashi is a traditional technique used in a folding screen or a painting on a fusuma (Japanese sliding doors) since ancient time. Pasting these random forms of gold leaves together, one by one, creates a sense of depth giving an elegant glow to the one-of-a-kind body. Fujin Raijin-zu, a representative design of Japan as well as a masterpiece of Rinpa, is then applied on its Kanazawa-haku body using a remarkable Hira-maki-e technique, bringing together the tradition and the elegance in the fountain pen. By applying the traditional technique developed in the history, the fountain pen has an elegant finishing reminiscent of a painting of a folding screen. It also applies the complete airtightness "Slip & Seal Mechanism" of the popular "#3776 Century" series that prevents ink from drying out in the pen, therefore allowing those who only use the pen once or twice a year writing with fresh new ink. Also features a 14K nib and is cartridge/converter fill. Converter not included.
