The AP Limited Editions Urushi Lacquer Art Fountain Pen in Tamenuri Green brings a quiet, luminous depth to the writing desk. Its layered urushi finish reveals a gentle interplay of deep green and warm undertones that shift with the light, inviting closer study each time it is picked up. Subtle rather than showy, it marries traditional lacquer craft with a contemporary sensibility for daily writing and considered collecting alike.
Craftsmanship & Design
Tamenuri is a time-honored urushi technique in which translucent layers of lacquer are applied and cured in succession, then carefully polished to a rich, glassy sheen. Here, the green top layers allow the warmer base tone to bloom at the contours and edges, creating natural highlights that define the silhouette without a single hard line. The result is a living surface with depth and softness, one that will continue to develop a delicate glow as it is used over the years.
Every curve feels deliberate and poised in the hand. The proportions support long sessions without distraction, while the smooth, uninterrupted lacquer showcases the finish without visual noise. It is an object made to be handled and appreciated up close, where the nuance of the urushi work truly comes alive.
Writing Experience
A 14k gold nib provides the pen's expressive core, combining dependable flow with the subtle spring that enthusiasts value in a well-made gold point. Available in extra fine, fine, medium, and broad, it accommodates everything from compact notes to generous, shading-rich lines. The cartridge/converter filling system offers easy flexibility for everyday use, whether you prefer the convenience of cartridges or the ritual of bottled inks.
On paper, the pen writes with quiet confidence: smooth without becoming glassy, steady without feeling stiff. Line character remains composed across a range of inks and papers, making it a versatile choice for journaling, correspondence, or detailed annotation.
Brand Heritage

The Urushi Lacquer Art series reflects a focused commitment to finishes that are thoughtful, tactile, and enduring. By centering craft and restraint, the brand creates pieces that reward long-term ownership and careful use rather than short-lived novelty.
