This pen is enveloped in deep, shimmering tones that transition elegantly between warm gold and rich black. Subtle architectural forms and flowing lines emerge across the surface, evoking a tranquil landscape that unfolds as the pen is turned in the light. Fine geometric accents add quiet structure and contrast, lending the design a refined sense of rhythm and balance. The gently contoured Hyotan shape enhances the visual flow, making the artwork feel continuous and immersive. Finished with understated gold details, the pen offers a calm, dignified presence that feels both timeless and contemplative.

About Danitrio Hyotan Fountain Pen Series:

The Hyotan in Japanese means "Gourd" or "Calabash", which is a fruit that can sometimes come in an hourglass shape. This series of pen does come in the hourglass shape; in the US, collectors of Danitrio pens have coined it the Mae West, one of the biggest Hollywood stars in the twentieth century known for her hourglass figure.

Nib Details:

This pen is furnished with an 18k Gold, two-toned #6 nib. What has been described by many Danitrio collectors as the fireball nib is an image of “Kaen-Kohai” which is a flame-shaped halo of “Fudo Myoo” (Acala, the God of Fire). This halo is commonly painted on the back of Japanese Buddhist statues.

An UrushiPen.com representative will contact you to confirm nib tip size preference (fine, medium, broad, or stub) following the placement of the order.
