The barrel is hand-made from ebonite. This is given a finish of \u003cem data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUrushi\u003c\/em\u003e lacquer - a most traditional of Japanese techniques. Urushi is a natural lacquer and five coats are each painstakingly applied, allowed to harden and polished in turn. A final coat is wax-polished, rubbed with pulp paper and oil polished - all repeated three times. The resulting rich, deep finish is highly prized and can be seen on many Japanese craft pieces. The Tamenuri process is used to imbue a subtle red hue to the barrel and cap where they meet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe 18k gold bi-colour nib is the usual supreme Platinum quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIzumo is presented in a wooden giftbox imprinted with the Izumo logo and includes a special fabric pen pouch.
