Probably one of the most detailed and intricate designs from Namiki, the Yukari Royale Night Scene fountain pen was said to have been inspired by a haiku written master wordsmith Yamaguchi Sodo (1642-1716), which was a reflection on finding comfort in paradoxes anchored in the exploration of Zen. 

Spring, in my hut 
There is nothing 
There is everything 

Created by famous lacquer craftsman Yutaka Sato of the Kokkokai artists’ collective of Namiki, it features a pavilion at night backdropped by trees and mountains. The design gives off an air of serenity and mystery, with the golden powder on the cap’s tip seemingly recreating moonlight on a quiet night and adding the illusion of depth to the rest of the scene. It was created using togadashi-taka (burnished-raised) maki-e technique, which is only used on top-tier Namiki pens. The technique requires a lot of time and skill, but the product is a three-dimensional visual experience that is worth the wait.
