Nakaya Dorsal Fin 1 Aka-tame Ishime Fountain Pen - Pre-Order

This model has a fin on the cap that functions as a roll stopper. It is designed with the image of a knife. "Ishime kanshitsu, Aka-tamenuri" uses shu (vermilion) lacquer as the base color and a black dry lacquer powder, finishing with a shu-ai lacquer. It is similar to the finish of "Ishime kanshitsu, Kuro-tamenuri," but has a more red color.

It therefore resembles hot lava. "Ishime" is made with a special technique that creates a stony texture on the surface. When the dry lacquer powder is sprinkled onto a lacquered surface, surface tension occurs and the powder gathers in certain places. Use the clumps that have formed by chance, apply the lacquer in layers, let it set, and then polish it to create "Ishime." It becomes the "stone-like" finish in the garden.
