Sculpted Majesty: Taccia Empress Fountain Pen – Aka Fuji & Sakura on Black (Chinkin)
Elevate your collection with the Taccia Empress in the extraordinary Aka Fuji & Sakura on Black Chinkin. While the Empress series is already the pinnacle of Taccia’s "King-size" offerings, this specific edition utilizes the rare and demanding Chinkin (gold-inlay carving) technique, offering a textured, three-dimensional depth that traditional Maki-e cannot replicate.
The Aka Fuji & Sakura Chinkin edition depicts the iconic "Red Fuji" and delicate cherry blossoms not just through paint, but through thousands of microscopic lines and dots meticulously carved into the dark Urushi lacquer and filled with precious gold powder.
✨ Signature Features: The Art of the Chinkin Master
The Empress Chinkin is a rare masterpiece, requiring a level of precision where a single slip of the carving tool can ruin months of work.
-
Artisanal Chinkin Technique: Unlike standard lacquer work, the artist uses special steel-tipped chisels to hand-carve the imagery into the hardened black Urushi. The recesses are then inlaid with 24k gold powder, creating a shimmering, etched effect that catches the light from every angle.
-
Oversized Ebonite Foundation: The pen is built upon a substantial, hand-turned ebonite body. This provides a warm, ergonomic feel and a robust canvas that is resistant to temperature changes, ensuring the delicate lacquer remains stable for decades.
-
Seamless Clipless Profile: The Empress features a majestic, cylindrical silhouette without a clip. This allows the panoramic scene of Mount Fuji and the cascading cherry blossoms to wrap around the pen in an uninterrupted 360-degree display.
-
18K Japanese Two-Tone Gold Nib: Fitted with a world-renowned, "King-size" 18-karat gold nib manufactured by Sailor in Japan. These nibs are famous for their consistent flow and a unique, tactile "pencil-like" feedback that provides ultimate control.
-
Artist’s Signature: Each pen is individually signed by the Chinkin master on the barrel, serving as a permanent mark of its artisanal pedigree.
🖋️ Filling Mechanism & Technical Specs
The Taccia Empress Chinkin is a professional-grade instrument designed for the most sophisticated collectors.
-
Filling Mechanism: Converter/Cartridge (Sailor Proprietary).
-
Included: Comes with a Sailor proprietary converter for bottled ink and two ink cartridges.
-
Nib Widths: Available in traditional Japanese sizes (Medium-Fine, Medium, and Broad). Due to the sheer size of the 18k gold nib, it offers a luxurious, slightly cushioned writing experience.
-
Traditional Presentation: Housed in a handcrafted Kiri (Paulownia) wood box and wrapped in a traditional silk kimono pen wrap for protection.
The Enthusiast’s Note: "The Chinkin technique adds a whole new dimension to the Red Fuji design. You can actually feel the texture of the blossoms and the mountain under your fingers. It’s a very large pen, but the ebonite core makes it light enough for long writing sessions, and the Sailor-made nib is simply the best in the world."
