Description

[NO RESERVE] NAMIKI | YUKARI - MANDARIN DUCK, A LIMITED PRODUCTION RADEN, TOGIDASHI-TAKA MAKI-E AND LACQUER FOUNTAIN PEN, BY ARTISAN YASUNORI SAKAMOTO, CIRCA 2003 Model: Yukari - Mandarin duck Cap/Barrel/Clip: Black urushi lacquer cap and barrel with multi-coloured Raden and Togidashi-Taka Maki-e techniques Mandarin duck motif design, gold clip with 'Namiki' engraved logo Nib: 18k gold, Size No.10 - M Length: 14.2cm Accompaniments: Maker's presentation box, ink bottle and instruction manual Namiki | Yukari系列 - 鴛鴦，限量螺鈿、研出蒔繪及漆藝鋼筆，由蒔繪大師坂本康則(Yasunori Sakamoto)繪製，約2003年製。附原廠筆盒、墨水瓶及說明書。 Footnotes: NO RESERVE 不設底價 A tribute to wisdom and nocturnal grace, the Namiki Yukari The Owl Limited Edition fountain pen is a rare masterpiece, limited to just 450 pieces worldwide. Crafted by esteemed Urushi artisan Masato Sato, this pen showcases the owl's piercing gaze through Raden inlays (abalone shell) and the intricate Togidashi-Taka Maki-e technique. The owl, revered in Japanese culture as a symbol of intelligence and insight, is brought to life in shimmering detail against a midnight backdrop. A crescent moon and scattered raden stars adorn the cap, evoking a quiet, starlit forest where the owl reigns as a silent sentinel. Encased in a Japanese oak presentation box with a carved owl motif, and paired with a custom bottle of ink, this pen is not only a writing instrument but a collector's treasure, ideal for those who value artistry, symbolism, and the elegance of Japanese lacquerware. Lot to be sold without reserve. For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com For further information about this lot please visit the lot listing
