Motifs are carved into the lacquered surface with special chisels, and after inlaying lacquer in the grooves, placing gold leaves and gold powder gives the pattern expression. The delicate and fine depiction and three-dimensional aspect overflowing with a strong power of expression are the special characteristics of this collection. Since Chinkin is a carving technique, there is no room for mistakes. Every single carve is a true challenge in the sense of the word.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e#10 18k gold nib\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComes with CON-70 converter and spare cartridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eFor a close-up and 360-degree view of the motif, feel free to refer to its listing on Pilot-Namiki's website\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pilot-namiki.com\/en\/collection\/yukari\/grapevine\/\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.pilot-namiki.com\/en\/collection\/yukari\/grapevine\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible cartridges can be found here:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/currenthomeny.mom\/collections\/namiki\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/currenthomeny.mom\/collections\/namiki\"\u003ePilot\/Namiki Fountain Pens\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMore from the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/currenthomeny.mom\/collections\/pilot-namiki-chinkin-fountain-pens\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/currenthomeny.mom\/collections\/pilot-namiki-chinkin-fountain-pens\"\u003eNamiki Chinkin Collection\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Pilot","offers":[{"title":"Fine","offer_id":44084016742613,"sku":".GP\/16833","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium","offer_id":44084016775381,"sku":".GP\/16836","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Broad","offer_id":44084016808149,"sku":".GP\/16839","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1717\/0621\/files\/DSC_2336_ae33fa13-daae-4cff-b8cf-74efc550ed15.jpg?v=1694638153","url":"https:\/\/currenthomeny.mom\/products\/pilot-namiki-chinkin-fountain-pen-cherry-blossoms","provider":"Yoseka Stationery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
