Nakaya Writer Piccolo Toki-tamenuri fountain pen

€648,76 EUR

The Nakaya Writer Piccolo Toki-tamenuri fountain pen is made of ebonite that is finished with a beautiful Wajami urishi lacquer. This compact small size fits perfectly in the hand, without the need to "post" the cap. Ebonite is a light material, so the pen can be made slightly longer and thicker without it becoming too heavy. Several transparent urushi layers are applied over the light brown base color, each of which is dried and then polished. The more layers are applied, the darker the final color of the pen will be. With this pen, this results in a beautiful dark brown lacquered pen, with the underlying, in this case, light brown layers becoming visible in the sharper transitions. The name refers to this; "Tame" means "pond" and refers to the transparency of the top layer and "nuri" means "layer" which refers to the painting process.

The design of the pen is simple and sober, no double rings and a clip. The fountain pen is slightly longer than normal and intended to be used without a cap on the back. (It is not recommended to place the cap on the back of the holder due to damage to the beautiful urushi lacquer).

The nibs are 14 carat gold and can be ordered in different writing widths.

Orders
Nakaya fountain pens are made to order, delivery time varies from three to about six months, but the pens are well worth the wait.

We have a small "iron stock", which we will try to maintain. In addition, it is of course possible to order the pen from us with your specific preference regarding the holder, urushi color and nib.
