Due to the nature of the finishing, there will be differences each time.(One place straddling the cap and body, two places long and short on the body, 1 or 2 places on the grip)The base model is cigar type in piccolo size.

  • Phernambuco　[no.22030]
    Price: US$1,300

    Price: US$1,300
    We had an opportunity of using a rare material known as brazilwood, which is the best material used for making bows for string instruments.
    It originates from Brazil, and due to the excessive deforestation of brazilwood, they are currently protected under the Washington Convention (CITES).
    Despite of the difficulty to obtain the wood, we were able to come into contact with the musical bow company with the help of a person who appreciates our calling, and were able to finish the product (our products are made using off-specs materials for bows).

    The wooden part is buff polished in order to maximize the natural beauty of the wooden texture.
    Please be careful with the adhesion of ink, since no coating is applied on the surface of the pen.
    (The base is made of ebonite with black urushi lacquer.)
    Total length: 130 mm, Max diameter: 17mm

    One of the characteristics of the material is the depth of diversity colors (as you can see from the picture, there are differences in colors. Some of them have a deeper color).
    The products colors differ depending on the original color of the woods, thus, we cannot accept request of colors.

    Please also note that it was originally used for dyeing other materials, therefore, color staining can be caused by such things as sweat from the palm of the hand.

  • Nishijin Carbon・Sugiaya(Herringbone)　[no.22033]
    Price: US$1,400

    Price: US$1,400
    Although the pen barrels are known to have been made of Carbon Fiber before, mostly the plain weave was applied. We, Nakaya, have produced traditional Sugiayagata design by using an Ayaori diagonal weave. A lone woven thread is thin and can be used to create a detailed design, but requires an enormous skill to work with.
    Sugiayagata is a pattern originated from the leaves of Japanese cryptomeria, which it resembles in form, and is called a Herringbone weave in the West. It seems to have a more modern and familiar touch than the fabric patterns that were popular in ancient times.

  • Nishijin Carbon・Saya　[no.22034]
    Price: US$1,400

    Price: US$1,400
    Although the pen barrels are known to have been made of Carbon Fiber before, mostly the plain weave was applied. We, Nakaya, have produced traditional Sayagata design by using an Ayaori diagonal weave. A lone woven thread is thin and can be used to create a detailed design, but requires an enormous skill to work with.
    Sayagata is a repeated pattern by gradually extending fylfots and connecting them in rhomboids.
    From Momoyama period to the early years of Edo the Kumiori weaving method (the method of deploying different patterns on the same piece of fabric) was imported from China and used to create a pattern of silk Sayaori, and afterwards was called “Sayagata” in Japan.
    Thus, due to the longevity of the pattern, it didn’t cease to exist, but survived symbolizing prosperity and long life of a family. The fylfot itself in Stone Age India represented the Sun spreading its rays all around, and was considered a pattern that brings luck in Hinduism and Buddhism.
