Overview

The Namiki Capless Raden Stripes fountain pen uses stacked rectangles of mother-of-pearl to suggest the way still water mirrors the scene above it. The repeated inlays create a reflection running through the black lacquered surface, while their iridescence changes the colors as the pen turns. Rhodium trim accompanies the shell decoration.

Raden begins with thin layers taken from the inner surfaces of shells, including turban, trumpet, and ear-shaped shells. These layers are cut into small pieces, secured in urushi lacquer, and polished into the surface. The sequence of cutting, setting, and polishing creates the geometric pattern without losing the shell's changing reflections.

The Capless mechanism extends and retracts a rhodium-plated 18k gold nib, so there is no separate cap. The pen accepts ink cartridges or a converter for bottled ink. Made in Japan, it has a barrel width of 13 mm and a total weight of 30 g, and is supplied with a converter in a wooden box.

Questions & Answers

Why does the Raden Stripes pattern change color as the pen turns?

The decoration uses pieces of shell with an iridescent inner surface. Their appearance changes as the pen rotates, while the stacked rectangles create a mirror-like arrangement inspired by reflections on calm water.

How are the shell pieces set into the pen?

Thin layers from the inner surface of shells are cut into small pieces, secured with urushi lacquer, and polished. This raden process creates the rectangular decoration on the black lacquered exterior.

Does the Capless have a separate cap?

No. The writing point retracts into the pen, so there is no separate cap to remove or keep aside.

Can I use both cartridges and bottled ink?

It accepts compatible cartridges or a converter for bottled fountain pen ink. Use the maker's cartridge or converter format for the pen.

What is included with the pen?

The pen comes with a wooden presentation box and a converter.

How should I care for the exterior?

Wipe it with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid solvents and abrasive cleaners.

A beautiful pen

This pen has been my dream pen for a long time, and I finally was able to buy it. It's my first gold nib fountain pen and the writing experience is super smooth. The clip doesn't bother me in the slightest, which was a concern for me. It's a very practical pen for taking notes in meetings, so that the nib doesn't dry up between notes.
The raden maki-e decoration is gorgeous in person.
The experience of buying from IguanaSell was very good. My pen was delivered much quicker than the delivery estimate they originally gave me, and customer service responded very quickly to my enquiry.

Quand artisanat d’art japonais et côté pratique ne font qu’un

Ce stylo est un réel plaisir tant pour les yeux que pour la qualité de sa plume (presque flexible et d’une douceur dépassant celle du très réputé Pilot Custom 823) ou d’un Namiki maki-e qui présente également des éclats de rasé (tout en étant bien plus coûteux !).
Si vous appréciez son design (attention, le clip se situe au niveau de la zone de préhension et peut rebuter) et les plumes Pilot/Namiki : foncez !
