The artisan must check the leaves one by one during the steaming process, because the leaf may get too dried and become easy to break later.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen, it is pounded one by one to achieve the best thickness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the meantime, we apply on the pen body with multiple layers of Urushi lacquer to reflect the scene of nature on the pen body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNext, each leaf is dyed with Gold powder to have the Gold color, then attached to the body of each pen with transparent Urushi.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, other multiple layers of Matt Urushi are applied. In order to honor the purest beauty of Japanese nature which has both smoothness and roughness, our artists keep the arts as natural as they are by applying Matt Urushi with Nuripanashi technique (the technique which does not require polishing step). The Matt Urushi also has the job of protecting the leaf as well.

In order to honor the purest beauty of Japanese nature which has both smoothness and roughness, our artists keep the arts as natural as they are by applying Matt Urushi with Nuripanashi technique (the technique which does not require polishing step). The Matt Urushi also has the job of protecting the leaf as well. When you touch the body of each pen, you will feel the leaf as well as a naturally rough surface of Japanese Matt Urushi with some uneven dots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e*Please do not mistake this artistic purpose with defects.*\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/8371\/3324\/files\/IMG_2794_1_480x480.jpg?v=1619080816\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan size=\"4\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaterial \u0026amp; art: \u003cspan\u003eEbonite, Urushi\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFilling mechanism: Converter or Cartridge (European International Standard)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNib: #6 Jowo stainless steel, Wancher 18K gold\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeed: Plastic, ebonite black, ebonite red\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompact air-tight cap: Preven dried-out ink problem\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eSize \u0026amp; Shape\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/8371\/3324\/files\/holly-olive-red.jpg-20210422_480x480.jpg?v=1619080795\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003ePackaging\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTraditional Japanese Wooden Box + Pen Kimono + Instructional Materials + Authenticity Certificate + Converter + Cartridge\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/8371\/3324\/files\/IMG_2802_1_480x480.jpg?v=1619080811\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Wancherpen","offers":[{"title":"1 Leaf","offer_id":42730787307735,"sku":"WF-KIUR-EBDP-RDHRG1","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2 Leaves","offer_id":42730787340503,"sku":"WF-KIUR-EBDP-RDHRG2","price":600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/8371\/3324\/files\/WancherKieiurushiHollyOliveRedfountain-pen2025.png?v=1745295527"},{"product_id":"dream-pen-zogan-sakura-river-urushi-aka-tamenuri","title":"Zogan Sakura River - Urushi Aka Tamenuri","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImportant Notice: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe hand-making process makes every single pen a unique one, there is no pen exactly resembling one another.
