Kama-nuri, also known as kamakura-bori, describes the technique in which lacquerwork is carved or chiseled out in a pattern-like fashion. It was originally applied to lacquered wood but for this pen, it is applied on lacquered ebonite. Many of Danitrio's kama-nuri lines have these hand-chiseled patterns configured in an array pattern. This pen was hand-painted first by maki-e artisan Masanori with an tame-nuri finish and then guest chiseled by Kazushi Kaneda.
This is a brand new Pen it comes in it’s box.
About Danitrio Genkai Series:
The owner of Danitrio had called this series of pens "Genkai", meaning "limit" in Japanese. The intent was that this would be the largest pen series of Danitrio and no other pen would be larger than it. Little did he know that later on he would develop a series with an even larger pen called the Yokozuna.
