The barrel of this pen features Hira maki-e, a method of Japanese lacquerwork from the Heian period (794-1185) that uses a variety of gold and silver powders to create metallic color in flat relief. Each urushi \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003elayer is polished with powdered charcoal to create multiple tones of gold. This bold carp-scale pattern is completed with raden designs of inlaid abalone shells that catch light in a different way. This beautiful pen is not only a writing instrument but a masterpiece of traditional Japanese art.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003eStyle: Urokomon (Scales)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e18k gold Platinum President nib with rhodium-plated accents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIncludes a converter, cartridge, and a small bottle of Platinum blue-black ink\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eComes in a velvet-lined wooden box with a cloth pen case\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReplacement cartridges\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/yosekastationery.mom\/search?q=%22platinum+ink+cartridges%22\"\u003eavailable\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNote that this pen is recommended not to be posted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMore \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/yosekastationery.mom\/collections\/platinum-izumo-fountain-pens\"\u003ePlatinum Izumo\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003eWeight (capped): 38.0g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003eLength (capped): 156.0mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003eLength (uncapped): 134.7mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003eDiameter - cap (without clip): 17.6mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003eDiameter - body: 15.9mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan mce-data-marked=\"1\"\u003eDiameter - grip: 10.2-14.2mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAbout the Izumo Series:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eShunichi Nakata, the founder of Platinum Pen, launched the Izumo series in 2010 with the help of local craftsmen and the cooperation of officials from Izumo City in Shimane Prefecture.
