Namiki Maki-e Fountain Pen Overview

Описание: Brian sat down with John Lane, the General Manager of Pilot Fine Writing, to learn the ins and outs of Namiki maki-e fountain pens. The ancient Japanese tradition of maki-e is an art form that combines meticulous attention to detail with deep symbolism and mythology. The training for maki-e artists is so rigorous that a novice works for decades before making a pen without the supervision of a master craftsman.

In this video, Brian and John walk through each of the Namiki maki-e fountain pen models, including the Namiki Emperor, Yukari Royake, Yukari, Nippon Art, and Chinkin. They talk through the various filling mechanisms, nib sizes, and explain the details of each of the maki-e techniques.
