Under the clip, a round orb appears in one of the dragon’s claws—in mythology, this dragon jewel has magical properties and brings good fortune. The impressive depth of the background and dynamism of the dragon's curved body is achieved through multiple Chinkin layers and an intricate combination of fine dots and lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNamiki Emperor Chinkin Dragon matches the size of the fountain pens in Namiki's highest-ranking collection, the Emperor Collection; it similarly comes with a jumbo size No.50 18k gold nib. \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis pen is filled via eyedropper with a shut-off valve and features a high ink capacity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Chinkin Collection is made up of fountain pens which use “Chinkin (Gold Inlay)”, one of lacquer ware techniques that Japan boasts to the world on a par with Maki-e. Motifs are carved into the lacquered surface with special chisels, and after inlaying lacquer in the grooves, placing gold leaves and gold powder gives the pattern expression. The delicate and fine depiction and three-dimensional aspect overflowing with a strong power of expression are the special characteristics of this collection. Since Chinkin is a carving technique, there is no room for mistakes. Every single carve is a true challenge in the sense of the word.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRelease Date: 2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e#50 18k gold nib\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEyedropper filler\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComes with an eyedropper and a bottle of Namiki Blue ink\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime warranty from Namiki\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eFor a close-up and 360-degree view of the motif, feel free to refer to its listing on Pilot-Namiki's website\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pilot-namiki.com\/en\/collection\/chinkin\/dragon\/\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMore from the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/yosekastationery.mom\/collections\/pilot-namiki-chinkin-fountain-pens\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/yosekastationery.mom\/collections\/pilot-namiki-chinkin-fountain-pens\"\u003eNamiki Chinkin Collection\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRefunds are not accepted on this pen once it has been used with ink.
