Fountain pen decorated with modern makie showing cherry blossom petals over Kanazawa gold leaf. 18k gold nib. Gift inkwell included.
This fountain pen is part of the Kanazawa Gold Leaf collection, where Japanese artistry merges with modern writing instruments. The design features cherry blossom petals ("sakura") swirling gracefully in the wind, captured through a modern makie technique applied over gold and silver leaf from Kanazawa, a city renowned for its centuries-old legacy in gold craftsmanship.
The image is created using the "scattered leaf" technique and is protected by a transparent lacquer coating. The lightweight AS resin body houses an 18k gold nib that offers an ideal balance of durability, flexibility, and writing smoothness. The nib’s geometry has been carefully studied—starting from a thinner base that widens toward the tip—to ensure optimal performance with minimal writing pressure.
Thinner and lighter than other collections such as the 3776, this fountain pen is ideal for both daily writing and artistic appreciation. It comes in an elegant presentation box and includes, courtesy of Inktraveler, a gift inkwell.
To fully enjoy the fluidity and depth of Kanazawa ink work, we recommend pairing this pen with high-quality papers such as the Ginkouka Plain or Ginkouka Ruled pads. Their surface is specially formulated to highlight the color, saturation, and flow of your writing without bleed-through.
