Column As you know, on January 1, 2024, the Wajima area of Ishikawa Prefecture was struck by a devastating earthquake, and in the summer of that year, the area was hit by torrential rains rarely seen in history, and unfortunately recovery efforts are still slow.The region has long nurtured the art of urushi lacquering and has produced some of the world's most beautiful maki-e (gold-relief lacquerware) and chinkin (chinkin carving) works of art.However, in the recent disaster, many artisans lost their homes, jobs, and families, and because of the aging population, there are few successors to take over the craft.Most Japanese fountain pen makers are still relying on the skills of local craftsmen, and even if we receive an order for a maki-e fountain pen, we are not sure when we will be able to deliver it.The other day, we received a repeat order for the same product, and the price went up by more than 30%. In most cases, the delivery date is also unknown.The only way for our loyal customers to get the best products at the lowest prices is to purchase what is currently in stock as soon as possible.This will be reflected in new products and in the future recovery activities of our craftsmen.The art of Wajima is a treasure of the world, and has been refined since ancient times under the name of “Japan.In fact, there is a shortage of products, and the price of products that used to cost $3,000 are now $4,000! The price has risen to an unthinkable level.We would be grateful for your understanding and support.ShippingWe always send the item with a tracking number.
