Built on Pelikan's flagship M1000 piston-fill fountain pen, it was hand-crafted by renowned Japanese maki-e master \u003cstrong\u003eShoso\u003c\/strong\u003e, representing a pinnacle of East-meets-West artisanal excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDesign Inspiration\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe design draws from one of the most iconic works in art history — Katsushika Hokusai's celebrated ukiyo-e woodblock print, \u003cem\u003eThe Great Wave off Kanagawa\u003c\/em\u003e. Towering waves surge across the pen body with breathtaking dynamism, as if the viewer is standing before Hokusai's masterpiece itself. The overall composition is rendered on a \u003cstrong\u003eblack lacquer\u003c\/strong\u003e base, accented with gold powder to create a deep, layered visual richness.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMaki-e Lacquer Artistry\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wave crests are executed in \u003cstrong\u003eTaka Maki-e\u003c\/strong\u003e (raised maki-e), a technique that builds the lacquer surface into three-dimensional relief, making the waves literally rise from the pen body. Within the waves, \u003cstrong\u003eraden (mother-of-pearl)\u003c\/strong\u003e is inlaid, refracting light into a pearlescent shimmer that plays beautifully against the warm glow of the gold powder — a layered, luminous effect that no machine can replicate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYear of Release: 2014\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorldwide Limited Edition: 88 pieces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBase Model: Pelikan M1000 (piston-fill)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaki-e Artist: Shoso\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTechnique: Taka Maki-e (raised maki-e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterials: Gold powder, raden (mother-of-pearl)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Pelikan","offers":[{"title":"M","offer_id":40853773123713,"sku":null,"price":5500.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/2960\/5761\/files\/7FF52678-5A6C-439B-9ECC-00974A99CFAF.png?v=1786854996","url":"https:\/\/izumipen.com\/products\/pelikan-m1000-maki-e-nami-waves","provider":"IZUMIPEN LIMITED","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
