Pelikan Souverän M1000 Red Infinity limited edition
The Pelikan Souverän M1000 Red Infinity limited edition is the next pen in the raden saga. It is made with particles from the Australian abalone shell, and the greenish hues used for this precious fountain pen are scarce. The surface of the M1000 is painted in a red urushi coating and sprinkled with silver powder to give it a sparkling appearance. The rectangular abalone stripes are fixed to the cap and barrel. Finally, after months of elaborate work, the artist signs each fountain pen using the highly valued Maki-e technique.
Sailor Seikkei ebonite limited edition.
Sailor Seikei is a limited edition King of Pen made of high-quality Japanese ebonite. Seikei refers to snowy scenery as in the Ukiyo-e print Snowy Muko-Jima of Kawase Hasui. The ebonite of this Seikei is laminated ebonite. A production process in which different colors are built up layer by layer until the desired mass and shape is obtained. Therefore it is possible to observe pin holes or tiny particles in the material, but it adds all to the character of the ebonite.
These pens are very popular due to their exquisite ebonite and unique colors. We only choose the NMF nib sizes since these are more suitable for the western writing style.
Namiki Yukari Bush Clover Limited Edition 2023
Bush Clover, Hagi in Japanese, has been one of the seven favorite flowers of Autumn since antiquity.

On the Namiku Yukari Bush Clover Yukari limited edition fountain pen, the shimmering Hagi is illuminated by moonlight and delicately treated in silver Maki-e and red lacquer. In the background, the undergrowth takes the form of magnificent traditional fans realized with a grey lacquer and gold powder. This fountain pen will be distributed in 300 copies worldwide but only 70 pieces are available for Europe. Expected April '23!
