Maki-e is the art of Japanese Lacquer painting and is renowned
for its beauty and artistry. The Pelikan “Snow, Moon and Flowers”
Maki-e fountain pen uses Togidashi-Taka-Maki-e that combines
both Taka-Maki-e and Togidashi-Maki-e techniques.
“Snow, Moon and Flowers“ refers to winter snow, autumn moon,
and spring flowers, which are natural beauties in three of the
four seasons of Japan, and also conveys the tenderness in
the scenery. In addition, it has become a symbolic foundation
that supports the aesthetic life of the Japanese people with
a calm and peaceful state of mind. “Snow, Moon and Flowers”
has been used in various poems and lyrics in praising the
beautiful landscapes that strike people’s hearts.
On the fountain pen, snow crystals, full moon and cherry
blossoms are painted on the background and sprinkled with
gold powder. The motif fantastically expresses the beautiful
four seasons of Japan in fascinating details.
The Pelikan “Snow, Moon and Flowers” Maki-e fountain pen
is a masterpiece that combines the craftsmanship of Pelikan
Germany based on over 180 years of tradition and technology
coupled with superior Japanese traditional Maki-e painting
techniques. Each pen has the Pelikan logo on the crown,
a limited edition number, and the artist’s signature drawn
in by hand using Maki-e techniques. The edition “Snow, Moon
and Flowers” is limited to 123 pieces worldwide. Each fountain
pen is equipped with an 18 carat, two-tone gold nib and is
encased in a traditional Japanese pen box made of paulownia
wood. The writing qualities are carefully checked and tested
by hand before it comes to you. Manufactured and assembled
in Germany, refined in Japan.
