Nakaya Portable Cigar White Roses
Maki-e, literally "sprinkled powder," is a general term for the process by which figurative or abstract designs are created by sprinkling pigment or metallic powder onto the surface of Urushi lacquer while it is still wet. There are many varieties of Maki-e, such as Tame-sukashi, Raden, and Chinkin.
With elegant white roses and vines covering a rich red finish, the Nakaya Portable Cigar White Roses Maki-e fountain pen is a stunning work of art. The smooth, slender Portable Cigar is an excellent showcase for the detailed Maki-e.
Nakaya pens ship in a solid softwood shipping box decorated with Japanese Kanji script and lined with decorative rice paper. A fabric pen "kimono" and starter box of Platinum brand cartridges are also included, making this pen a lovely presentation item. Sensible and elegant packaging has long been a hallmark of the Nakaya brand.
