The fountain pens in the Emperor collection by Namiki are delicate works of art, signed by their author artist. Each of the Emperors fountain pens requires three months and sometimes more of expert, loving and minute craftsmanship. The Maki-e, a decorating technique patiently refined by Nipponese artists over the centuries, came to full bloom in the 14th and 15th centuries A. D., when, as it was highly sought by the aristocracy, it came to enrich the looks of the implements used in the tea ceremony. Maki-e is part and parcel of the cultural heritage of old Japan. It involves no less than thirty some different processes, that concur in d6cors of utmost subtlety and unrivalled luxury.
