The TACCIA Empress Fujiyama is a limited edition of 88 pens worldwide. It takes several months to complete the hand-laid Maki-e technique, Raden and Rankaku, on the hand-polished ebonite barrel of the oversized Empress LE body. Each is fitted with a significant 18 karat gold “King of Pen” nib, made in Japan exclusively for TACCIA, available in medium and broad nib sizes.
These fountain pens are made by hand in TACCIA's Urushi studio in Wajima, enhancing traditional inlay techniques with precious metals and lacquers. The body features natural urushi lacquer and classic maki-e techniques such as raden (mother-of-pearl inlay), and rankaku (eggshell inlay). The airtight cushion seal cap allows for a snug closure.
Each limited edition Empress Fujiyama fountain pen is individually numbered out of 88, and is accompanied with a certificate of authenticity. It comes packaged in a wooden gift box. The pen fills with either a proprietary Sailor converter or Sailor ink cartridges; both of which are included.
Please note we are unable to accept a return of this pen for any reason once it has been used with ink. Please thoroughly inspect and dry test the pen before use.
