Namiki – Aya Tokiwa Evergreen
Introducing the captivating additions to the Namiki permanent collection, the AYA range, masterfully crafted by the esteemed Kokkokai group of artisans in early 2023.
In Japanese, “AYA” signifies the essence of colored light, evoking an enchanting world of abstract patterns that spark our imagination and inspire poetry.
Each fountain pen in this collection boasts a vibrant colored lacquer and intricate patterns created using the Togidashi maki-e technique, Raden inlays, and accents of gold or silver powder.
Tokiwa (Evergreen) embodies the everlasting nature of the environment. The design reveals flourishing trees on a mountain, thriving even in the midst of winter, under a sparkling, pure, and starry sky. Crafted with Togidashi Maki-e, Raden, and gold powder.
Completing each model is the extraordinary 18K N°30 gold nib featuring the iconic image of Mount Fuji, adding a touch of elegance and authenticity.
At the dawn of the 20th century, Namiki introduced the world to the harmonious fusion of the traditional Japanese art form of “Maki-e” with fountain pens. Renowned for their exquisite lacquered bodies and refined designs, Namiki’s craftsmen have gained worldwide acclaim. Today, their unrivaled skills and unwavering spirit continue to shape Namiki as the epitome of Maki-e fountain pens.
