Taccia Empress Maki-e Fountain Pen - Double Dragon (2024 Limited Edition)
As part of Taccia’s 2024 Empress Limited Edition Maki-e Pen Collection, the Double Dragon fountain pen pays homage to the legendary dragons of ancient Chinese folklore— the guardians of the heavenly realm and mankind and symbols of power, good fortune and wealth. These majestic creatures are believed to release cosmic chi, connecting us to nature while unlocking our inner strength and power.
The maki-e artisan employed the Taka Maki-e technique in painting this pen. This maki-e technique produces a three-dimensional effect that breathes life into the intertwined twin dragons. The outlines of the dragons and the fiery red clouds were first drawn on paper and were carefully transferred to the ebonite surface of the pen. Multiple layers of lacquer were then applied, followed with painting the image of the double dragons and the clouds, then interspersed with delicate gold powder to enhance the image and create a captivating gradient effect. Raden (sea shell) pieces were expertly set into the eyes, adding a mesmerizing depth that captures their essence and breathes life into the twin dragons.
This intricate maki-e crafting process requires the expertise of highly skilled artisans, often taking several months to complete.
Each pen is individually signed by the artist and numbered. Limited to 20 pieces available worldwide. We currently have one piece available: Limited Number 19.
The Double Dragon Empress Limited Edition Fountain Pen is equipped with a two-tone 18k gold King-of-Pen-size nib from Sailor, exclusively crafted for TACCIA. Its refilling system uses either a proprietary Sailor converter or Sailor ink cartridges; both are included.
