Utilizing painstaking traditional techniques the Nippon Art line pays homage to the legacy of Namiki writing instruments.  In using the method of Hari Maki-e, a practice that requires the utmost skill and patience, Namiki has ensured that every writing instrument produced in this line will be a treasure to any who possess them.

The Nippon Art Bonsai fountain pen highlights an intractable symbol of Japanese culture: the bonsai.  A painstaking art requiring great dedication and patience, bonsai was first introduced to Japan during the Tang dynasty, where the practice of training cuttings or seedlings from full-grown trees into miniature versions of their larger counterparts became popular both for its aesthetic and its meditative nature.

This Yukari-sized pen has a 14k gold nib in size #10, fills via cartridge/converter (a CON-70 is included), and comes packaged in a wooden box. Each pen takes months to create.
