Platinum Aidu Kaga MAKI-E 18Kt
Poppy-Flower BROAD Nib fountain pen
This fountain pen is called Whole body Kaga maki-e Expensive fountain pen!!
Platinum Japan provides 100% attention on the Maki-e technology and quality of materials are used in this KAGA Maki-e series. Such as, look at the pictures, we can see there are three different kinds of 18 Kt Gold to art this Maki-e . For example they have used 18kt Liquid Gold Pest, 18kt Gold Dust and 18kt Gold with White Marble mixture by artists own hands. Most attractive part is shinning part in the White flowers . There are very small cutting marble attached on the flowers, that’s why we can see, the reflection of the different color from different angle. Actually I tried my best to take clear picture to express the real beauty of this maki-e pen but until you see this pen directly by your own eyes, I think it impossible to express by words. In a word, it’s really beautiful maki-e pen.

Platinum
Platinum produces a variety of Maki-E pens, including lacquer carving, pearl inlay and pens with the Kanshitu-rough volcanic-type surface. In 1919, Syunichi Nakata, a collector of imported fountain pens, opened a small fountain pen shop in Okayama, Japan. His shop became very successful in a short period. In 1924, he moved to downtown Tokyo, adjacent to several pen manufacturers, and officially named his company Nakaya Seisakusho. The company exceeded earlier success and grew to nearly 80 employees. Later in 1924, Nakata changed the company name to the Platinum Pen Company. Platinum initially sold pens via mail order to office workers and teachers in small villages throughout Japan. Soon, they were exporting to Singapore, Hong Kong, and Java. In 1978, Platinum introduced its longest-lasting model to date, the 3776 fountain pen. Platinum named it in reverence to Mt. Fuji, which is 3776 meters tall. And in 1981, the New York Modern Museum of Art displayed Platinum's Z pen. The company has continued to grow from there. Platinum Pen, USA is a subsidiary of Platinum Pen, Japan, a manufacturer of fine writing instruments since 1919.
About Maki-e:
Maki-e is an ancient Japanese art that combines intricate lacquer painting with a variety of surface decorations. These traditionally include powered gold and other precious metals, gemstones, mother of pearl or abalone shell.
This 1200-year-old art form was created to embody the harmony of man with nature. Platinum Maki-e instruments are exclusively designed by commissioned Japanese artisans utilizing the rich Maki-e heritage of Japan’s Kaga region.
Platinum, in honoring this art form, has chosen to offer only true hand-made Maki-e techniques including !
“Chinkin”, which involves the application of small gold pieces into the surface of the lacquer, and
“Raden”,the delicate application of fine shavings of abalone shell into the lacquer surface…
