For questions or more information please contact us directly at info@chatterleyluxuries.com During the peaceful Tokugawa Era (1603-1868) Samurai had too much leisure time to spend, and the designs by Urushi paintings on their scabbards became fashionable as salesmen’s ties in dress suits today. The paintings in various free patterns on scabbards were called Saya-nuri, and we call it Kawari-nuri today. There are almost unlimited ways to paint on the scabbards and we use such free pattern paintings on pens also, while they are not the authentic methods of Maki-e. We can categorize Kawari-nuri by different materials and techniques they use. This Nami-nuri (Wavy Look) painted with brushes and then, the gold powder was sprinkled in gradation way.These pens have an MSRP of $1200.
