Namiki Yukari Royale Urushi Vermilion Fountain Pen

The Namiki Yukari Royale Urushi Vermilion is a fountain pen that impresses with its clear design and extraordinary depth. The surface consists of multiple layers of Urushi lacquer, finished in an intense Vermilion red. This traditional lacquering technique is built up, sanded, and polished over many steps until a mirror-like, vibrant surface is created.

The result is not a static color, but a finish that subtly varies depending on the light and gains more character over time.

The pen is crafted by specialized Maki-e artisans in Japan. Each one is meticulously handcrafted over several months and embodies the centuries-old tradition of Japanese lacquer art.

The shape of the Yukari Royale is deliberately generous. The pen feels substantial yet balanced in the hand, making it suitable for longer writing sessions.

Inside, a large 18-karat gold nib (size #20) ensures a controlled, smooth ink flow and a particularly soft writing experience.
