Wancher True Urushi Kuro Tamenuri Fountain Pen
Wancher True Urushi Kuro Tamenuri Fountain Pen. A true Ebonite fountain pen with true values of Japanese traditional arts. With a great fountain pen, you can write many beautiful things and amazing ideas. And from there, many good things are believed to come. We hope that with our Dream Pen, many dreams will be written about and become true. Urushi lacquer is applied with a brush to an object by the hand of a traditional craftsman. After the careful application of many layers of Urushi and ornamentation, Urushi brings great protection for the art piece as it makes the object able to withstand erosion from water, acids, alcohol, and changes in weather conditions. Each creation of the Urushi art piece requires a lot of time and skills. And you can feel the dedication of an artisan when you touch and feel the quality of the final product. Note: The hand-making process makes every single pen a unique one, there is no pen exactly resembling one another. The one you will receive might be slightly different from the one here in the pictures but if you appreciate that beauty of hand-craftsmanship, you will be happy with the pen Wancher made for you. | Wancher’s Corner | Wancher True Urushi
About Wancher
The origin of Wancher traces its journey back to 1990 when Mr. Okagaki Taizo was conducting “Desert Greening” research for ODA in Egypt. Under the severe condition in the desert during this time, handwriting became the only method to record all research information. And it led Mr. Okagaki to the idea of creating a fountain pen that can be useful under any circumstances.
After 10 years of researching and developing, in 2000, Mr. Okagaki established a stationery company under the name of THT Inc. While selling other maker’s fountain pens, Mr. Okagaki also invested a lot of time and effort into making his own fountain pen designs as well. In 2011, he decided to change the company name to Wancher Inc. and made it an independent fountain pen brand instead of a pen retailer. Since then, Wancher has been focusing on making unique writing instruments especially fountain pens to introduce to friends all over the world.
