Pelikan Limited Edition Souveran M1000 Raden Red Infinity Fountain Pen

Pelikan Limited Edition Souveran M1000 Raden Red Infinity Fountain Pen

Both an exemplary writing instrument and a stunning work of art in its own right, the Pelikan Souverän M1000 Raden Red Infinity Limited Edition is a unique combination of German pen design and Japanese Maki-e work. Raden is a traditional Japanese decorative craft. Working with small pieces of precious shell material, the master artist creates a unique and distinctive striped fountain pen which is an impressive piece of art. Gold dust, urushi lacquer, and Australian abalone shell are among the precious materials used.

Made with particles from the Australian abalone shell. The size of the abalone shell is small, and the greenish hues that are used for this precious fountain pen are particularly limited. The first step to create the fountain pen Raden M1000 Red Infinity is to give the surface a red color impression by using the special Japanese Urushi lacquer. By carefully sprinkling silver powder, the red colored parts sparkles when turning the fountain pen in your hand. The rectangular stripes are made with particles from the precious green colored mother of pearl shell. In the next step the stripes are fixed to the cap and barrel by a coating of lacquer. Each hand-finished pen is personally signed in kanji by the Maki-e artist.

Each individually produced piece is crafted by hand and is truly unique.

The Raden M1000 Red Infinity fountain pen is a piece of art with a finely chased 18 carat gold nib. Each fountain pen comes in a traditional Japanese gift box which is made of Paulownia wood. This is limited edition of 400 pieces worldwide.
