Overview

The Namiki Chinkin Cherry Blossoms fountain pen celebrates sakura through gold-inlaid flowers carved into polished black urushi lacquer.

Sakura, the Japanese cherry blossom, is a familiar emblem of Japan. The flowers come from trees of the genus Prunus, including the Cerasus subgenus. Their forms appear here in gold against dark lacquer.

Kokkokai artisans use Chinkin to carve the floral pattern directly into the polished surface. Lacquer applied inside the grooves holds the gold leaf or powder that defines each flower.

Made in Japan, the pen has a two-tone 18k gold nib and takes ink cartridges or a converter for bottled ink. With its screw-on cap in place, it measures 137.3 mm long and weighs 36.5 g; barrel width is 12 mm. A converter and wooden presentation box are included.

Great pen, great delivery, great price.

The Namiki Chinkin (Cherry Blossom) was packaged extremely nicely and carefully - it arrived in pristine condition and writes beautifully. I got mine in a Fine. The delivery was extremely fast and the pricing is one of the cheapest out there in the market (even more so when you factor in the fact that they cover Custom/Duty taxes - in Australia).

Beautiful Writer

This pen is wonderful to write with. I got a medium nib and it is buttery smooth. It glides on the page without much effort. I received this pen almost at the same time as I got "finally" my Nakaya cigar piccolo from Japan. Both are beautiful pens and I find myself liking the Namiki Chinkin nib over the Nakaya's. It is hard to describe the feeling of writing with the Namiki nib, it has almost a zen-like, peacefully tranquil feeling writing with it. But in terms of aesthetics, I prefer the Nakaya in its simplicity. The size of the Namki Chinkin is perfect for my hand - which is small. If you can buy a Namiki Chinkin, I highly recommend it.
