Okita 'Geisha and Art of Tea' Urushi Fountain Pen

Paying homage to the three Geishas of the Kansei period, Namiki’s fountain pen is a testament to its exquisite craft and fine attention to detail.

For nearly a century, Namiki has perfected its specialised, globally-admired Maki-e fountain pens, which are individually handmade by “Kokkokai” - a talented group of Maki-e artisans which assembled in 1931. Using traditional Japanese craftsmanship and age-old techniques such as lacquer work, each writing tool is hand-finished with sprinklings of gold, silver and shells using a Kebo brush.
