Item Description: This is a luxury Japanese fountain pen titled “Gafu - Crane” (雅風・鶴), model AX-8877, featuring an exquisite maki-e (蒔絵) lacquer design. The motif was originally created by Miyabi Gafu (雅風) and beautifully brought to life by skilled Wajima maki-e artisans, showcasing Japan’s proud traditional craftsmanship. The design features elegant cranes in flight, symbolizing longevity and good fortune, rendered in gold and red over a deep lacquered black body. The pen is crafted from a resin body with lacquer and maki-e finish, and fitted with a 14K gold medium nib. It also incorporates the “Slip & Seal Mechanism”, which prevents ink from drying out for up to 2 years—even with infrequent use—making it practical as well as collectible. The pen comes in a traditional Paulownia wood (kiri-bako) gift box and includes a single-sleeve brocade pen pouch.
