Tradition meets innovation in a captivating blend of craftsmanship and artistry. Tsugaru Nuri, a centuries-old lacquerware technique from Japan’s Aomori prefecture, has been meticulously adapted by TACCIA into their ebonite-bodied pens, ensuring instruments that stand apart from the ordinary.
This oversized Ao-Iro fountain pen features an exquisite deep blue urushi lacquered ebonite body, adorned with delicate quail eggshell and raden maki-e inlay. Over 20 different layers of urushi lacquer go into the making of this pen.
