Butterfly
and Chrysanthemum
Limited to ninety-nine pieces worldwide, the Emperor
Butterfly and Chrysanthemum fountain pen sold out immediately. Known as the Great
Purple Emperor, the Butterfly design is regarded as a symbol of regeneration and
revival. The Purple Emperor's valiant and magnificent appearance and it's stately
beauty, has made it the national butterfly of Japan.
The pen depicts an adult Butterfly. It is beautifully
displayed with plum-colored wings and Raden (mother-of-pearl) technique.
Evoking
the richness off Fall, the Chrysanthemum is one of the flowers that epitomizes
Shikunshi*, and is the symbol of autumn. Along with the cherry blossom, the Chrysanthemum
is widely popular as one of the national flowers of Japan. This noble flower is
illustrated on the pen through the gold and silver Taka Maki-e (raised lacquer)
technique method.
The golden colors in this stunning arrangement are a reminder of the months
when the sun hangs low in the sky, bouncing lazy rays off crisp deciduous leaves.
This light provides blasts of mandarin, ruby, plum, silver, and gold....nature's
true fireworks.
The
body of the Emperor size pen has been decorated by the skilled artisan Michifumi
using refined Maki-e techniques. A precision 18-karat gold nib ensures first-class
writing quality and long-lasting performance. A special ink bottle designed specifically
for this pen completes the majestic presentation. The pen is presented in an elegant
gift box, the lid of which is decorated with a "Kaga Puzen", died silk,
with the same butterfly and chrysanthemum motif, one of the most prestigious traditonal
handicrafts of Japan.

*Shinkunshi
(or the Four Gentlemen) Since the Chinese Song Era, some trees and flowers
have been endowed with status as represenatives of the dignity and morality that
men should possess. The orchid corresponds to spring, bamboo to summer, the chrysanthemum
to autumn, and the plum to winter.
