Celebrate the spirit of Japanese summertime with this stunning fountain pen, inspired by the tradition of fireworks festivals. Fireworks were originally used in Japan to ward off evil spirits. In modern times, they light up the sky during joyous events. This pen's design captures a festive scene, featuring a woman in a delicate yukata (casual summer kimonos) and a young boy admiring the dazzling fireworks above.
Meticulously crafted using traditional Japanese techniques, the pen showcases taka maki-e on the human figures, shimmering abalone for jewelry accents, and rankaku (quail egg shells) for the textured ground. The yukata sparkles with raden highlights, adding a touch of brilliance to the vibrant artwork. Whether you're drawn to its exquisite craftsmanship or the nostalgia of a summer night in Japan, this pen is a spectacular homage to tradition, artistry, and celebration.
About Danitrio Genkai Series:
The owner of Danitrio had called this series of pens "Genkai", meaning "limit" in Japanese. The intent was that this would be the largest pen series of Danitrio and no other pen would be larger than it. Little did he know that later on he would develop a series with an even larger pen called the Yokozuna.
