Essenza inari okami and dragon taka maki-e - #8 Gold nib "la Fenice"

inari okami and dragon taka maki-e
A truly amazing pen, starting from an Essenza model without metal parts, "la Fenice" gold nib #8 assembled on japanese ebonite red feed. The pen is produced entirely with the manual lathe using Japanese ebonite.

Inari is the kami spirit of abundance, fertility, growth, and laughter, and may be the most important and popular kami in Japan. Inari is a mysterious and adaptable deity, worshiped by Shintoists, Buddhists, shamans, and independent practitioners. He can manifest as female, male, neither, or both.

The dragon is a fascinating figure that spans centuries of tradition, legend, and visual art. It's more than just a mythological animal: it represents aquatic power, protection, wisdom, and a profound connection between heaven, earth, and sea.


The finish product is stunning, the decoration was done and signed by French Artist Morgan Wisser.
