Platinum Rising Dragon Fountain Pen

The Platinum Rising Dragon fountain pen is the second pen in the Kanazawa-haku (gold leaf) series.The beauty of the Kanazawa-haku (gold leaf) and the traditional techniques have joined together to release a premium masterpiece, the Kanazawa-haku fountain pen “Rising Dragon,” Platinum's second “Kanazawa-haku (gold leaf)” fountain pen series after “Fujin Raijin (the Wind God and the Thunder God).”

“Rising Dragon” has been painted as an auspicious work inspired from ancient times. Using the “Unryu-zu (a folding screen along with the painting of a dragon in the clouds)” painted by Sotatsu Tawaraya as a motif, Platinum meticulously applied “Kanazawa-haku Momi Chirashi” technique on each pen. By utilizing a modern “makie” technique, Platinum has created a distinguished and sophisticated “Rimpa” style fountain pen. 

The base is Kanazawa-haku using Momi Chirashi, a traditional technique that after a gold leaf is extended to a thin sheet, it is torn into smaller pieces. These are then pasted to the barrel of the pen, giving an elegant glow that reflects light with depth and adding a lively motion to the dragon, which makes a remarkable, one-of-a-kind fountain pen. Made in Japan.
