Namiki Sakura Rose - The True Gentlemens Writing Instrument !
They say that the writing instrument makes the man. Here is one, that at about $80,000 should do that for you at least. Dunhill's new limited-edition pen; the Namiki Sakura-Rose fountain pen marks the 75th anniversary of the first collaboration between luxury goods company Dunhill and pen maker Namiki. The pen displays the centuries-old Japanese art form of maki-e, which translates to “sprinkled picture”. Gold and silver dust embellishes the barrel’s images of roses and the cap’s spray of cherry blossoms. The roses symbolize England, the home of Dunhill, and the cherry blossoms represent Namiki’s Japanese roots. The Sakura-Rose is further decorated with gold leaf and mother-of-pearl, adding depth and texture to the pen’s lacquer surface. The pen’s designer, maki-e master Kyusai Yoshida, signed each of the 25 pieces. Should you get one of these, let us know about it!
