Since the Raden/Maki-e is applied by hand, the design is different one by one. Therefore, there will be no second fountain pen exactly similar to yours.

What inspires Dream Pen Limited Edition 2022

The Zen philosophy is a common practice in modern lives, not only in Japan but also over the world. One of its most important principles is that everything in this universe is deeply interconnected and you - yourself - are a part of the universe. Only when you accept yourself as a whole with the universe, you will find the immense innermost power that you have been looking for.

Embracing this beautiful ideology, Wancher and Wajima artisans have worked together and visualized the inner power - hidden universes inside each individual with the traditional arts of Japan - Raden and Maki-e.

The art behinds - Japanese Raden and Maki-e

This time, we are honored with another opportunity to work with experienced artisans in Wajima, Japan, whom we greatly entrusted with the Urushi and Raden application.

The beauty of Raden was complemented even more when accompanied by the Maki-e art, hand-painted piece to piece by Master Yamanoshita - who is behind our highest-ranking Dream Pen designs.

Learn more about our artisans here.

Fullest dedication into details

First, each pen is applied with multiple layers of natural authentic Japanese Urushi for a glossy Urushi base. Then, only qualified abalone shells are selected and flattened to make thin Raden sheets, which are cut to the exact size for the application. Following that, layers of post-Urushi-lacquers are applied and polished to reach ultimate smoothness. Finally, to complete the soul of each design, Master Yamanoshita will hand-draw intricate Maki-e details using authentic gold powder on top of the smooth Urushi and delicate Raden inlay.

Now, we would like you to look closely into each Maki-e details with us. Can you can feel the dedication of the artisans with each design?

Each pen in Limited Edition 2022 is a treasure because of the high-class materials and its painstaking process alone. Yet, what we admire and cherish the most is the true craftsmanship behind it.

Thin gold lines are frequently used in this collection to express the flow of internal energy - the flow of the universe. And, only a master with tremendous experience in lacquering practice can perform those elegant, delicate, and evenly thin gold lines around the cigar-shaped body. Not only utmost concentration and skill but also, a sense of the material's nature are required to complete these complex designs.

Especially, the highest-class model - "Supernova" - features a complicated Maki-e technique - Nashiji 梨子地 or pear-skin ground, beautifully embracing two opposite sides of the ebonite pen body.

Only 10 of each Raden-Maki-e design will be crafted worldwide. Each Dream Pen Raden 2022 Limited Edition - Cosmic will be numbered and signed by Maki-e Master Yamanoshita.
