Overview

The Namiki Emperor Urushi Vermilion fountain pen revives the oversized Jumbo design in red lacquer, finished with traditional Roiro polishing.

The oversized form recalls the Jumbo fountain pen of the early 1930s. Its eyedropper filling system retains the original ink shutoff concept.

Kokkokai artisans finish the vermilion surface with Roiro Urushi Shiage. The oil-free final coat is polished with special charcoal and repeatedly rubbed with raw lacquer to develop its luster. A gold-finished clip accents the uninterrupted red finish.

Made in Japan with an 18k gold nib, the pen measures 174.1 mm long with its screw-on cap in place. Barrel width is 17.2 mm, and capped weight is 47.7 g. It comes in a wooden presentation box.

I’ve seen bigger pens but…

I’ve never impressed by any nib on that level, the feeling is shockingly impressive as you’re meeting with an emperor!! As an urushi craftsman, I can say the work is minimal and just perfect especially on the knob part. Most of the reviews doesn’t mention the knob in detail but I believe this needs more attention. You can arrange the ink flow rate from there which will change eventually the colour and size of your lines depending on the ink type for sure. I was criticising being eye dropper but now I know why!
I’m so fascinated by this pen and wishing you to experience the same.

Dear Anil, thank you for your amazing review! We're thrilled with your enthusiasm and appreciation for this lovely pen. We appreciate your support and hope that others get to experience the same fascination. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you again for your kind words!

Unglaublich schön

Ich habe wirklich viele Schreibgeräte, aber der Namini Emperor ist einfach klasse. Er ist anders als meine Montblanc Füller mit Feder F. Schreibt sich deutlich anders aber sehr präzise.

Auch die leichte flexibibilität der Feder lässt Spielraum für Linien variarionen.

Da ich bei Montblanc meistens Feder F nutze habe ich hier eine Feder M gekauft. Da die bei Namini feiner ausfallen. Daher bin ich sehr glücklich über die Wahl.

Der Füller ist wirklich groß, daher nichts für die Brusttasche im Hemd, aber dafür umso bequeme beim schreiben.

Hallo, vielen Dank für Ihren Kommentar. Namiki ist definitiv eine unserer Lieblingsmarken, die Qualität der Feder kann sich sehen lassen und ihre Designs sind einzigartig. Bitte zögern Sie nicht, uns bei Fragen zu Ihrem Stift zu kontaktieren, wir helfen Ihnen gerne weiter.

Excellent service from Iguanasell. Pen is amazing. Very smooth writer and comfortable to hold. It's definitely not a novelty item as I have written pages and pages at a time with it.
