Namiki by Pilot Emperor Double Dragon Fountain Pen
Below is a picture of the Large #50 nib compared to a Montblanc 149 nib.
There are two types of Japanese dragons illustrated on the Namiki Emperor Dragon Fountain Pen; Â one belonging to the sky while the other is found in bodies of water as illustrated on the cap and barrel of the Emperor-sized pen using the Taka (raised) Maki-e technique, the highest level of advanced Maki-e techniques which requires at least three months to produce. Â The sky dragon depicted on the cap of the fountain pen is seen fiercely guardian the pearl within its three-clawed grasp, believed to be the wish-fulfilling pearl jewel.
Fearsome and powerful, dragons are also considered benevolent and the bringers of wealth and good fortune. Â In Japanese mythology, the dragon is highly regarded as the Guardian of the East and symbolises strength, power and protection.
