The limited edition M1000 Raden Black Infinity is an absolutely stunning masterpiece of Japanese artistry. The master artist has created an outstanding piece of art using the traditional Raden technique. For the M1000 Raden Black Infinity, selected sections of the colorful abalone green mother-of-pearl shell were smoothed and cut by hand into rectangular shapes. In the first step, the surface of the pen is painted black with urushi lacquer. In the next step the stripes are fixed to the cap and barrel by a coating of lacquer. Several coats of paint are applied, each of them must dry and harden completely before the next coating is applied. Between the finishing steps, the lacquered surface of the fountain pen is polished repeatedly. A subtle silver sparkle can be seen on the black urushi lacquer. This effect is achieved by sprinkling fine sterling silver powder. Finally, each pen is individually signed and numbered by the master artist using the Maki-e technique. The motif resembles a chessboard pattern and has no beginning or end on the round body of the pen, hence the name Infinity. It is a lucky design that stands for long-lasting family happiness, prosperity, positive development, and professional success. The M1000 Raden Black Infinity fountain pen is a piece of art with a finely chased 18 carat gold nib in the size M with a rhodium decor. Each fountain pen is equipped with a piston mechanism and is offered in a traditional Japanese gift box which is made of Paulownia wood. This unique Limited Edition will be available in October 2024 in a limited edition of only 400 pieces worldwide.
