    Default Urushi

    I just posted this in an urushi thread further down on the forum, but what the heck - I love these pens, so here's some urushi goodness:




    Top to bottom: Nakaya Naka-Ai in Heki-Tamenuri, Edison Pearl (clip) Bulb-Filler with Tamenuri finish by Ernest Shin of Hakumin Urushi Kobo, Edison Pearl with Aka-ishime no kuro tamenuri finish also by Ernest Shin.

    In short, yes. But I won't do the urushi myself. That takes skill I really don't have, so I resort to collaborations with urushi artists. And those works are all in process. Will post when done.
