About Namiki Emperor 2023 105th Anniversary Limited Edition Fountain Pen - White Rabbit
The Emperor Collection is Namiki's highest ranking series and boasts a No.50 size 18ct gold nib, the same size as the large Maki-e fountain pens created around 100 years ago. Produced from ebonite, the pens are then adorned with "Togidashi-Taka Maki-e (Burnished-Raised Maki-e)", one of the most highly skilled forms of this ancient art.
To celebrate the 105th anniversary of Pilot Namiki, the Company have launched the White Rabbit Emperor, made in Shishiai-Togidashi maki-e, the most complex technique of this ancestral art. Since Antiquity, rabbits have been interpreted as auspicious creatures and the artisan decided to stage the legend of the white rabbit of Inaba and the deity Okuninushi, on a background of lacquer and platinum powder.
Famous for his bravery and courage, this white rabbit’s animal shell actually hid the form of a God: a God of longevity thanks to his incredible survivability in the face of life’s obstacles.
We believe that this limited edition will bring love and success into the lives of people, and our loyal collectors.
A limited edition of 100 pieces signed by Masahiro Yamada, this piece being number 53.
The pen comes with a medium 18ct gold nib engraved with 105 Anniversary and has an eye dropper filling system. Presented in an elegant wooden casket with a bottle of Black Namiki ink and certificate of authenticity.
