Product Description
The TACCIA Empress Fossils in the Sky outstanding limited edition collection features the use of Rankaku Maki-e techniques, the masterful inlay of quail eggshells combined with expert application of Urushi lacquer for astonishing results.
The tremendous skill and time invested in creating each individual work of art that you hold and write with is clearly evident, and you will love the massive famously smooth two-toned 18K gold King of Pen nib.
It takes several months to complete the hand-laid Maki-e technique, Rankaku, on the hand-polished ebonite barrel of the oversized Empress LE body. Each is fitted with a significant 18 karat gold “King of Pen” nib, made in Japan exclusively for TACCIA.
These fountain pens are made by hand in TACCIA Urushi studio in Wajima, enhancing traditional inlay techniques with precious metals and lacquers. The body features natural urushi lacquer and classic maki-e techniques such as rankaku (eggshell inlay). The airtight cushion seal cap allows for a snug closure.
Each limited edition Fossils in the Sky fountain pen is individually numbered out of 88, and is accompanied with a certificate of authenticity. It comes packaged in a wooden gift box and comes with a cloth pen wrap and a bottle of matching ink.
The pen fills with either a proprietary Sailor converter or Sailor ink cartridges; both are included.
Please note we are unable to accept a return of this pen for any reason once it has been used with ink. Please thoroughly inspect and dry test the pen before use.
