This pen is inspired by Katamigawari (meaning "half and half") style that is often applied to Kimono's. The design is split where half the design is shown on a portion of the pen and the other half is shown on the other portion of the pen. In this pen, the designs are split between the bamboo stems and the other half showing the bamboo leaves and the birds.

 About Danitrio Takumi Fountain Pen Series:

The Takumi is Danitrio series pen that is cigar-shaped. Takumi means "good design or craft" in Japanese.

 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.
