Nakaya Decapod Writer Sumiko Gold ST
The Decapod is one of the most distinctive and instantly recognizable of the pen styles created by Nakaya. Uniquely well suited to Urushi finishing, the facets on these ten-sided pens allow the underlying color to be clearly seen.
Sensible and elegant packaging have been a hallmark of Nakaya. All Nakaya pens come packaged in handcrafted finery, as painstakingly constructed as the pens they protect. The heavy decorative rice paper, simple solid softwood shipping box and fabric pouch make a lovely presentation for Nakaya Urushi pens.
With its matte black finish and sleek gold accents, the Nakaya Decapod Writer Sumiko Gold ST fountain pen is a study in minimalism. This pen utilizes the Sumiko technique, which involves mixing charcoal powder with Urushi lacquer to produce the smooth, rich texture.
Decorative rice paper, a simple solid softwood shipping box decorated with Japanese Kanji script, and a fabric pen "kimono" are all included with this pen, making it a lovely presentation item. Sensible and elegant packaging has long been a hallmark of the Nakaya brand.
