Namiki Yukari Maki-e Fountain Pen – Firefly
In Japanese culture, fireflies are timeless symbols of love and poetry, glowing gently in the summer night. The Namiki Yukari Firefly Fountain Pen captures this delicate imagery with fireflies drifting among blades of grass, each illuminated through the shimmering Raden technique (inlaid abalone shell).
Crafted using traditional Togidashi Maki-e and Raden techniques, the Yukari collection showcases the artistry of Japanese lacquerware at its finest. Each pen is the result of months of painstaking work—multiple layers of lacquer are applied, outlined, dusted with gold and silver powders, and then polished repeatedly to achieve a deep, luminous finish. Some designs require over 100 cycles of this intricate process, making every pen a masterpiece of patience and skill.
The Firefly edition is fitted with a smooth #10 18K gold nib and includes both a CON-70 converter and spare cartridge for versatile ink use. It is presented in a velvet-lined wooden Namiki box, emphasizing its prestige, and is protected by a lifetime warranty under Pilot.
More than a writing instrument, the Namiki Yukari Firefly is a collectible work of art, bringing together Japanese tradition, natural symbolism, and flawless craftsmanship.
