Namiki Aya Akatsuki Daybreak

The Namiki Aya Akatsuki Daybreak fountain pen is a captivating example of Japanese craftsmanship, capturing the beauty of daybreak. As part of the latest Aya collection, this fountain pen stands out with its deep, polished red finish, symbolizing the mysterious hour just before sunrise. The name "Akatsuki" not only means "morning light" but also represents the fulfillment of a wish, highlighting the power of the sun rising through the darkness of night.

The pen's surface is adorned using the traditional Togidashi Maki-e technique, where layers of dried red lacquer powder in varying intensities are applied and accented with gold and silver powder in the background. The entire piece is then coated with Urushi lacquer, polished, and brought to a brilliant shine, creating unparalleled depth and elegance.

Equipped with an oversized 18-karat gold #30 nib engraved with the iconic silhouette of Mount Fuji, the pen is available in broad nib width and can be exchanged upon request to suit individual preferences.

The Namiki Aya Akatsuki fountain pen comes with a Pilot CON-70 converter and is compatible with both Pilot cartridges and converters, making it a practical choice for daily use. Presented in an elegant Namiki wooden box that includes a bottle of high-quality ink, this fountain pen is not just a writing instrument but also a piece of art that delights collectors and admirers of Japanese traditions.
