Writer Long Izumi no Kami Kanesada　

The design is modeled after the sword mountings (“koshirae”) of Toshizo Hijikata’s beloved sword, “Izumi no Kami Kanesada”.
The body was painted using a technique called “Honshu Kanshitsu Kuronurikomi Togidashi”, apply black lacquer to vermilion “ishime” and polish. A phoenix motif is drawn on the barrel with charcoal powder, and a peony motif is drawn on the cap with black lacquer.
The both tips of the pen are made to look like a scabbard tip of sword, “kojiri”, and are finished with charcoal powder to make them matte and fringe it with gold.
For the grip section, a paper mulberry leaf is drawn with silver on a charcoal powder finish base, and draw the veins of the leaf with black lacquer on it, then applied transparent blackish amber lacquer and polished it.
Using various techniques, we have created a piece that resembles the real sword mountings of the sword.
