[SAILOR] Traditional Lacquer Art "Rei" Iwate Kinoshiru-nuri Fountain Pen (M)

The northeastern region of Japan, including Appi area, Hachimantai City, Iwate Prefecture, has long been famous as a major lacquerware production area.

Appi-nuri is the lacquerware that the base is layered from the base coat to the top coat and has excellent solidity.

"Kinoshiru-nuri" has a unique watermarking technique called Mizukagami (glassy surface of the water), in which layers of lacquer characterized by Appi-nuri are applied and polished to create vivid colors and a rich view of the world.

The lacquerware is finished with domestic lacquer and is an elegant piece with a soft luster.
