I am falling in love with our Japanese brothers and their incredible work!

How can you not? It has to be an almost lost art. Urushi! Make-e! Months to complete! It is an honor to hold one in your hand, much less call it yours and write with it.

It almost seems a shame to take something that takes so long to create and use it for a common purpose.

But then again, we do love fountain pens don't we? And to love FPs is to love what they were designed to do.
