Watching Arcane and journaling are my two favourite ways of spending Sunday...

🪬🧿 Wooden pen from my old wood workshop; the :Celtic knot is Olive wood, the rest is mahogany. ) #fountainpen #woodfountainpen #penandink #writinginstruments #penlover

A fountain pen rests on a dark wood surface. The pen's body is a combination of dark and light wood, with the cap lying horizontally and the pen itself standing vertically. The cap features an intricate design of lighter wood inlays on a reddish-brown base, complemented by a gold band at the end. The pen's body is a solid, darker wood, also accented with a gold band. The gold nib of the pen is visible, adding a touch of elegance to the overall design. The dark wood surface provides a stark contrast, highlighting the pen's craftsmanship and the warm tones of the wood.

We have crafted a fountain pen as an homage to Ogata Korin's "Sen-men Narihira Maki-e Suzuribako". The depiction of Ariwara no Narihira in an eboshi exudes an air of refinement.

Our workshop has created two very unique fountain pens. It's unfortunate that I cannot show images, as they were special orders from customers in Spain and Germany.

A fountain pen made using the "Rankaku 卵殻" technique. Rankaku involves finely crushing the shells of quail eggs and adhering these fragments using Urushi. Each piece is patiently applied one by one.
