2022 is the year of Five Yellow Tigers, a very special time which occurs once every 36 years. In celebration of this year, Taccia's famous Chinkin artist presents the Empress Chinkin Tiger. This pen is masterfully carved to accentuate the power exuding from the Soaring Tiger while highlighting the three dimensional beauty and intricacies of the Chinkin technique. Each Taccia Empress Chinkin Tiger Maki-e LE pen is fitted with an exceptional 18K gold "King of Pen" nib, made in Japan exclusively for Taccia.
