Visconti Four Seasons Maki-e Limited Edition Fountain Pen 45502

Visconti Four Seasons Maki-e Limited Edition Fountain Pen 45502

A limited edition of 188 handmade, numbered fountain pens.

Visconti's Four Seasons Makie is a minimal edition of fountain pens hand-painted with the precious Japanese Maki-e technique.

On each of the fountain pen's sides, a different season is presented on urushi panels using different techniques of maki-e. Each of the seasons is painted in a complicated decoration with characteristic images and colors.

Like the Supernatural Creatures pens, the Four Seasons is a creation of Master Oshita’s wrapped around Visconti's technical expertise.

The Four Seasons Makie was released in 2007 and is a double reservoir power filler fountain pen with a bi-color 18kt nib.

On each facet, the four seasons are represented by Master Oshita’s wonderful paintings. The drawings were made using a mix of the most difficult-to-master maki-e techniques. The pen in itself symbolizes time’s passing: there is no beginning, no end, just the never-ending cycle of nature and life itself.

The pen comes in a luxury gift box.
