• Artistry and Symbolism: The Butterfly Motif: The body of the pen is adorned with a delicate yet vibrant Butterfly Design. In Japanese culture, the butterfly (chō) holds deep symbolic meaning, often representing joy, longevity, and transformation. Its elegant, fluttering form is a sign of beauty and grace, making it a highly cherished artistic subject.

The detailed butterfly motif is expertly printed, and then the critical highlights and outlines are meticulously finished by hand with gold and silver powder. This technique, sometimes referred to as Yumi Makie, ensures that the pen retains a genuine three-dimensional shimmer and connection to Japanese artisan heritage.
