TACCIA Shio-Sai Raden Urushi Fountain Pen - Yu-nami (Evening Waves) (Limited Edition)
Inspired by the ocean waves, TACCIA has released the "Shio-Sai" series. Craftsmen carefully selected the mother of pearl pieces based on their color for a consistant tone through out each pen, and created patterns that evoke the images of morning waves, evening waves, and night waves to you as you write.
“Raden” is the technique of inlaying mother-of-pearl shells onto an urushi surface. It involving cutting the mother-of-pearl shells into thin pieces, embedding them onto a flat surface and polishing them to form intricate patterns. The raden pieces come in a variety of stunning colors, including blue, green, and red.
Each pen undergoes the following processes, taking several months to complete:
- Base lacquering: The ebonite pen body is coated with multiple layers of black natural lacquer.
- Raden inlay: The raden pieces are meticulously cut by hand into suitable sizes (some even smaller than sesame seeds) and individually embedded by hand into the pen barrel then arranged in wave-like patterns.
- Lacquering and polishing: Gold powder is added, and the entire pen is coated with layers of lacquer, covering the raden pieces. Then, it is meticulously hand-polished until the colors of the raden pieces reappear.
The nib is a Japanese-made 14K gold nib.
The collection offers three color tones, each with a limited quantity of 88 pens:
- Asanami (Morning Waves) - Blue
- Yu-nami (Evening Waves) - Orange
- Yonami (Night Waves) - Purple
Compatible Inks: Bottled Inks / Proprietary Sailor Ink Cartridge
