Product Description
Offered for sale is a a rare Pilot Namiki Hanamasu Maki-e fountain pen with 18K M nib Fountain Pen by Masato Sato.  Master artist Masato Sato has already retired from Kokokai and his masterpieces with Pilot Namiki are getting more and more difficult to come by.  What makes this pen even more sought after is that this pen is not the usual line produced by Pilot Namiki. This pen was produced specially for the Northern islands. The flower Hanamasu is a flower in northern lands of Japan where the Central Hokkaido is situated. Hanamasu blooms on the coast with severe environment and is certified as the flower of Hokkaido due to its rustic, wild dynamism and its vivid colour of the flowers.
This pen comes with a pen clip marked with the word “Central” instead of “Pilot” or “Namiki”.  Besides that, the nib also portrayed the map of Hokkaido at the centre.  Based on the number imprinted on the nib, the pen is made in 2002. It is unclear how many were produced based on the information available online.  The pen come with its original box and converter.  The details of the flowers are nicely done.  This is the Yukari model and the pen sported with a 18k single-toned Medium nib.  This pen is brand new and never been used (i.e. uninked and undipped).  Comes with all boxes and papers.  This is definitely a collectible piece of art.
