Taccia’s urushi fountain pens are made in the town of Wajima in the Ishikawa region of Japan, a town renowned for its advanced lacquering techniques that stand the test of time.

The expert’s opinion: once there was “The red and the black”, Stendhal’s famous 19th century novel, now we’ll be talking, with the same enthusiasm, about Taccia’s Miyabi Earth Bokashi Lava. The least we can say is that the Japanese brand is once again keeping its promises. And what promises… From an aesthetic point of view, ‘sublime’ is the word that spontaneously springs to our mind. The urushi lacquer is a thing of beauty – the clip on the cap is also concerned – and the contrast between the two colours is of the most beautiful effect, not only on the body, but also on the section. The transition between black and red is simply perfect. Let’s move on to its use. It’s very pleasant to hold and the balance is perfectly respected. Contact with the lacquer is a pleasure of rare intensity. As for the nib, it runs over the paper with almost diabolical ease and precision. The flow is regular and the ink flows harmoniously (Edelstein Garnet ink from Pelikan). We tried all sorts of more or less perilous exercises on the paper (Tomoe River): the pen did its job brilliantly. The only regret is that we have to put it away. The pleasure will be in finding it again as soon as possible. Thank you Taccia.

Description

Miyabi Earth Bokashi Lava Fountain pen by Taccia – A limited edition of 100 worldwide

Taccia’s urushi fountain pens are made in the town of Wajima in the Ishikawa region of Japan, a town renowned for its advanced lacquering techniques that stand the test of time. The Bokashi Lava fountain pen in the Miyabi Earth collection was created by a Master lacquerer with a very high level of expertise and specialised in the gradation technique. With an ebonite base, this model is covered in red and black urushi lacquer, each colour giving way to the other in a perfect transition. Rarely seen on a fountain pen, even the section benefits from this outstanding workmanship.

This limited edition of 100 has a classic shape and a sobriety that leaves plenty of room for the deep colours and the brilliance of the urushi lacquer. The clip has also been covered in lacquer, in a black ccolour that echoes the top of the barrel when the fountain pen is closed. At the end of the body, the Master Lacquerer has not only signed his work, but also accompanied his signature with the model number. Its threaded section is made of metal.

The lacquer technique:

The lacquer has this incredible ability to resist corrosion, scratches and even impacts. This type of fountain pen therefore has an exceptional lifespan which can easily extend over several generations. The colour of this lacquer varies according to its exposure to light, generating incomparable shades, brilliance and shine. Many coats are necessary to achieve such a result, but also a considerable investment of time, since each coat will require a drying time that can vary from 3 to 7 days. Depending on the number of layers, which can be up to 20, long weeks and often several months are needed to create such a piece to which a meticulous finishing work must not be forgotten.

The nib:

Taccia has equipped its Bokashi Lava with a two-tone 18-carat gold nib made by Sailor. The nib is available in four sizes: EF, MF, M and B.

You’ll receive your Miyabi Earth Bokashi Lava fountain pen by Taccia in a delightful wooden box. It will be accompanied by its converter, two cartridges and a superb kimono case that will allow you to carry your fountain pen with you at all times.

    La description de ce stylo-plume sera certainement perçue comme dithyrambique, mais elle correspond à l’expérience que j’ai eue avec mon premier stylo Taccia . L’objet est magnifique, la laque Urushi est superbe tant au niveau de l’œil qu’à celui du toucher tout comme le contraste entre les ceux couleurs. L’agrafe, elle aussi laquée, ajoute une touche d’originalité au stylo, qui m’a conquis. La plume est un ravissement tant elle est exceptionnelle. Je n’en reviens pas moi-même. Merci au collaborateur de Nibs-plus-Ultra qui me l’a fait connaître.

      Quand on a un Taccia urushi dans les mains, il est difficile de ne pas être dithyrambique 😉
      Nous sommes comblés que cette merveille vous plaise, cher Christian, et nous vous remercions du fond du coeur d’avoir pris le temps de l’exprimer sur notre site.
