The Creatures of the Deep - "Kumanomi" Clownfish is the most playful of the Creatures series, the Clownfish
appears to weave and dart between bubbles of pearl and eel grass painted of gold.

the Clownfish seen here, the Octopus,
the hammerhead Shark , the Whale,
the Moray Eel, the Sunfish, the Sea Turtle, the Penguin, the Seahorse and the Manta Ray.
This pen is an aquarium in the hand, with little
events occurring in surprising places.
Gold and silver flakes shimmer on the orange color
of the Clownfish like the reflection off of wet scales.
Bubbles of gold
dust, gold paint and reflective shell rise from swaying grasses.
Though light in subject matter, the Clownfish reveals the strength of
this Maki-e artist's playful hand.
This pen comes with a Sailor Fine nib, and we have found
it to be a wonderful writer.
The 21K nib in the Creatures of the Deep edition
is the same size nib as in the 1911 pens, so we can offer it in the complete Sailor
range.
The Clownfish arrives in a wood presentation box which includes
ink and a Warranty Certificate, signed by the artist.
Thick golden grass wrap around the end of the barrel, anchoring
the pen.
