Pilot-Namiki released the Emperor Nobori Ryu fountain pen in celebration of its 95th Anniversary in 2013. Nobori Ryu means "Rising Dragon," and the pen is decorated with a richly-detailed dragon winding its way around the barrel and cap as it ascends toward the heavens. The design is rendered in exquisite takamaki-e and raised togidashi maki-e techniques, with inlaid raden (mother-of-pearl). The Rising Dragon is considered a harbinger of good fortune and abundance, a theme reflected in the luxurious gold and abalone shell ornamentation. Emperor-sized 18K gold nib, medium, engraved with 95th Anniversary motifs. Outer box, inner box, black lacquer display box, ink bottle with dragon motif on cap, eyedropper in box, leather pen chemise, booklet, signed artist's card, other papers. Limited Edition: 31/95. Pristine condition, unused.
