Sold, thank you!
Today I'm selling one of my precious Urushi pens, a Danitrio Takumi with a flexible factory stub nib. The color is dark green tame-midori with just a hint of color in most lightings and as I'm leaning more toward the brighter Urushi colors it just doesn't get the use and attention it deserves!

Nib has been tweaked by John Sorowka for flow and smoothness. Gorgeous writer with a nice wet and soft nib, not vintage flexible but about equal to a Pelikan M1000 nib. The Takumi is about the size of a Montblanc 149 but lightweight because it's hard rubber under Urushi. Made and lacquered by hand and signed with the artist's signature on the section.
Some pictures in direct sunlight (sorry for dust...). The color will grow lighter over time.

Can be used with cartridge, converter or converted to eyedropper - no metal parts at the barrel or threads. Gold plated clip. Bought in 2011, very good used condition, some micro scratches, no major scratches, dings or dents. With original wooden box. You'll rarely see one of those for sale... Beautiful writer and beautiful subtle pen.
Retail price USD 880,- ... asking USD 600,- or best offer. :)
