Sailor NAWATE Kuroginhaku Ei (Matte Finish) Japanese Lacquer Fountain Pen Traditional Japanese Lacquer Art NAWATE Fountain Pens Kuroginhaku Sei (惺) / Kuroginhaku Ei (影)The NAWATE Fountain Pen Kuroginhaku collection presents Sei ( 惺) in a lustrous glossy finish and Ei ( 影) in a refined matte finish. Layers of Urushi lacquer are brushed in irregular strokes, upon which Kuroginhaku—black silver foil—is delicately and purposefully scattered.This intricate process reveals a depth, subtle shading, and shifting expressions under changing light—nuances impossible to achieve with a uniform black surface.Sei ( 惺) shines like a radiant star against the jet-black night sky, while Ei ( 影) emerges gently under the calm illumination of moonlight. Together, they embody the elegance and profound beauty of black.The black silver foil attains its elegant depth through sulfurization, a natural transformation in which pure silver meets sulfur to form silver sulfide.Each sheet reveals subtle variations in tone, giving rise to a graceful, organic pattern unique to every piece. Only the finest 99.99% pure silver foil is used, ensuring both brilliance and authenticity.
