OR CHERRY BLOSSOM
FOUNTAIN PEN IS CREATED 2020 BY MAKI-E ARTIST YUMI HAYASHI. THE MAGICAL VIEW OF CHERRY BLOSSOMS AT NIGHT IS TRANSFORMED INTO BEAUTIFUL WORK OF ART AND CRAFTSMANSHIP BY COMBINING THE COLOURFUL BRILLIANCE OF RADEN TECHNIQUE AND TOGIDASHI MAKI-E.
THE RADEN (MOTHER-OF-PEARL) TECHNIQUE PROVIDES A WIDE VARIETY OF INTERESTING EXPRESSIONS. THE INSIDE SURFACE STRATUM OF VARIOUS SHELLS IS PEELED OFF IN A THIN LAYER. THE SAKURA PETALS ARE CRAFTED USING PIECES OF SHELL APPLIED INDIVIDUALLY AND BURNISHED AFTER COATING THE ENTIRE PIECE WITH URUSHI LACQUER.
TOGIDASHI MAKI-E – THE LACQUERED MAIN DESIGN IS DECORATED WITH SPRINKLED GOLD AND SILVER POWDERS. THE BODY IS THEN COMPLETELY COVERED WITH LAYERS OF URUSHI LACQUER, AND AFTER DRYING, THE DESIGN IS REVEALED BY BURNISHING THE LACQUER WITH CHARCOAL.
THE REFLECTED GLOW OF RADEN WITH GOLD AND SILVER POWDERS AGAINST RICH BLACK LACQUERED BACKGROUND IMPARTS A POWERFUL IMPRESSION, REMINISCENT OF CHERRY BLOSSOM VIEWING AT NIGHT (YOZAKURA), AND A WORLD OF EXQUISITE BEAUTY LEAPS FORTH FROM THE DESIGN PORTRAYAL. THIS LEVEL OF ART REQUIRES A LONG TRADITION OF INHERITED SKILLS AND ARE CREATED BY THE COLLABORATION OF JAPANESE MAKI-E ARTISTS (KOKKOKAI). THE ARTISAN’S SIGNATURE IN CALLIGRAPHIC KANJI SCRIPT APPEARS ON EVERY PIECE OF ARTWORK.
