The start of spring is reawakening of colours, scents and warmth. Nature renews itself and gives people a new beginning. In Japan, this is the time of the cherry blossom – a colourful festival of the senses, filled with the subtle perfume of the pink-white national flower of the Land of the Rising Sun. Since the Japanese emperor Saga held the first cherry blossom festival in the year 812, it has become a national tradition that captivates the whole country and celebrates the start of the long-awaited spring.
The fascination of the cherry blossom is immortalised in the exquisite fountain pen from the Special Theme Edition Sakura. The barrel and the cap are made of the finest Meissen porcelain and decorated with delicate paintings of exquisite cherry blossoms and the Meissen crossed swords symbol. The 18-carat gold nib is a tribute to the symbol of Japanese aesthetics – with the word “Sakura” engraved in Kanji characters.
Produced in 2002, the Sakura Limited Edition 88 honors the Lady Ise and is fashioned from 18-carat rose gold highlighted with cherry blossoms painted in exquisite enamel work. Built on the Boheme chassis this exquisite pen features a retracting 18K rose gold Medium (M) nib marked with Kanji characters.
