Aka Tamenuri Shippo-tsunagi Fountain Pen, TWSBI ECO
We have taken our maki-e treatment of the beloved TWSBI ECO to a whole new level - not just the maki-e paintings we are known to do, but the full treatment of "Tamenuri". And on a TWSBI ECO!!! "Tamenuri" is a traditional maki-e technique where the artist layers lacquer repeatedly to achieve a profound Bordeaux gradient. As the pen is held and used, the lacquer gains transparency, transitioning into an even more exquisite and vibrant depth of color over time. On the transparent barrel is the hand painted maki-e pattern of the auspicious "Shippo-tsunagi." The interlocking circles, expanding infinitely in every direction, signify "harmony" and "eternal connection." It is a perfect union of modern functional beauty with traditional elegance of an art form passed down through generations... Please welcome this supreme work of art as your very own. *Please note that there is a limit of one order per customer. Any orders attempting to circumvent this restriction will be cancelled. *This pen is made in very small batches. The next restock is expected in late August. About the TWSBI ECO The ECO has a simple design with a large ink capacity thanks to its excellent piston filling mechanism. Its transparent barrel puts the beauty of the ink in full display. The nibs offer a smooth writing experience that make you forget they are steel nibs. This is a wonderful pen even for beginners of the fountain pen hobby. 《Product Details》 Base model: TWSBI ECO Black Nib: Steel: EF (Extra Fine), F (Fine), M (Medium), B (Bold), Stub 1.1 Size: approx. 140mm (when capped) / 170mm (when posted) Weight: approx. 20g Filling mechanism: Piston filler
