Description: Namiki Chinkin 2009Emperor Peony Flower Fountain Pen I have been collecting pens, pen accessories and coins for 25+ years and I have decided to downsize my collections (I just don’t have the room to store everything anymore). Please check my other eBay listings as I will be posting more items from my collection on a daily basis. For sale is one new-old-stock pen from my personal pen collection: A Namiki Chinkin Limited Edition 2009 Emperor Peony Flower Fountain Pen with a Medium (M) Nib! It is a Flat Top #50. In MINT, ORIGINAL CONDITION, Fountain Pen NEVER DIPPED, INKED, USED or DISPLAYED! The Emperor Collection is Namiki’s highest-ranking series. About the Pen: Unlike the Maki-E technique, the Chinkin technique involves carving and not coating, so once the work begins it cannot be corrected even if an error is made. Chinkin (gold inlay) is a technique in which the surface is coated with a roiro urushi lacquer (a non-oily urushi lacquer) and then a special carving chisel is used. Precious metal gold leaf and powder are then inlayed in the cut patterns. The Peony flower is a traditional motif in Japanese fine art, symbolic of wealth, beauty and prosperity. The pen is fitted with a 18K two-toned gold #50 Medium (M) nib imprinted with Mt. Fuji. Created by the master artist Yasuji Sumi the pen bears his signature. Includes original outer gold dust heavy cardboard box, the inner wooden box, the Namiki use and care guide, a Chinkin booklet, Namiki inkwell black (sealed), pipette and artisan autographed paper (Yasuji Sumi). The pen employs an eyedropper filling system, the eye dropper is of course included.
