Nakaya Limited Edition D-17mm Cigar Portable Shiro Fountain Pen
NK.UCS17SRPGE
Nakaya
The Nakaya 17mm Long Cigar in Shiro-urushi finish is being made available in limited amount.
Since ancient times, only black and vermilion have been used as color materials for lacquer, and there is no white color, so eggshells have been used instead. The "Shiro Urushi" this time are also based on that white color.
This Nakaya fountain pen is made of hand-turned ebonite hard rubber that is meticulously coated with Urushi, a material made from the sap of a Japanese lacquer tree.
The process of collecting the Urushi and applying many layers of lacquer to this fountain pen takes a minimum of three months or more to complete.
