Hi there,
I am a watchmaker from Switzerland that has currently started to make fountain pens.
So, I am pretty new to the pen world and would like to introduce one of my work.
Since many years I am dedicated to Japanese art & craft and urushi lacquering.
So obviously my pens are made of ebonate and finished with urushi lacquer.
The pen I am showing today is a pen I call "Kiseru". the name derives from the Kiseru the Japanese tobaco pipe.
The pen is made of Japanese ebonite, the feed and gold nib is supplied by Bock Germany.
The lacquer finish is glossy black, called "Kuro Roiro Shiage". This finish is the most complex and time consuming among all the urushi lacquering techniques. As a stopper I applied a little snail also built of urushi, mixed with metal powder and angraved.
For any questions on urushi lacquer please don't hesitate to contact me at any time.
Best regatds,
Martin Pauli
