Namiki Yukari Pigeon Persimmon Fountain Pen
Namiki Yukari Pigeon Persimmon Fountain Pen
The Namiki Yukari Pigeon Persimmon Fountain Pen has an understated elegance because Togidashi makie is applied skilfully on the persimmon and the pigeon to give it less glimmer but more grace. The symbol of a pigeon symbolizes one's determination and the ability to overcome whatever obstacles lie in a person's path. Pigeons are also connected to the symbol of house and home.
The theme of having thin branches of the persimmon tree hanging under the weight of the ripe, ready to pick persimmon shows skills on the part of the artist composition. Background shows traces of maru pun gold powder sprinkled on the background giving it some depth.

About Namiki
Namiki is the surname of Ryosuke Namiki, the founder of the Pilot, named Namiki Manufacturing Company until 1938 when it became Pilot Pen Co., Ltd.. The brand name Namiki came to fame in the early 20th Century when Dunhill retailed in the west the Maki-e pens produced by Pilot under the brand Dunhill-Namiki. This partnership has continued to the present day (occasionally Namiki makes a Limited Edition for Dunhill) although Namiki has always been owned by Pilot.
The premium Namiki ranges include the Emperor Collection, Yukari Royal, and Yukari Collection, and this is the brand used by Pilot to sell their the high valued Maki-e pens worldwide.
