Taiwanese Artisan Kun-Yang – Second Creation Series
Urushi Lacquer Edition (crafted on Platinum Izumo base)
18K F Nib
“Birch Mark”
This piece is crafted on the Platinum Izumo fountain pen base, combined with the handcrafted natural urushi techniques of Taiwanese lacquer artisan Kun-Yang, showcasing the pinnacle of contemporary artisanal pen craftsmanship.
The pen features a warm brown-yellow foundation, evoking the natural tonal layers and grain texture of aged birch wood. Scattered silver leaf resembles gentle shafts of light filtering through a forest canopy—softened and diffused as if absorbed by the wooden surface, giving subtle movement to the serene palette.
Touches of pale grey-green appear like the seasonal moss marks and tonal variations found on real birch bark—unforced, unobtrusive, yet enhancing the authenticity of the wood-like texture.
This piece captures the quiet traces that time leaves upon forest trees—subtle, tranquil, intricate, and enduring. It is a beauty that reveals itself only when one pauses to look closely, much like the quiet details of nature.
