This is the Nakaya Long Cigar Ascending Dragon in the Heki-tamenuri color.
Nakaya Long Cigar Ascending Dragon
This pen is made using the Tame-Sukashi technique, which obscures an under-painting with a urushi lacquer. In time the under-image emerges stronger. In time the dragon painting will be much more prominent.
The fascinating feature of this pen is that the image literally "ascends" with use as the image of the dragon comes up as the pen is handled. In this slow process the owner's hand and everyday wear will give this pen the beauty of age. Nakaya Long Cigar Ascending Dragon
