Nakaya require no introduction and if you’ve got this far then likely you’ll be familiar with their wonderful writing instruments. The Dorsal Fin 2 is a legendary model, with its distinctive finned cap and barrel.
Suzu Ishime (Silver) is a an extremely rare and stunning finish... black lacquer is used for the base, with roasted tin powder then used to create the stone like finish. The dry lacquer powder is sprinkled on to the the lacquered surface, where it then clumps together. It is then polished to create the 'Ishime' finish.
The pen is fitted with a 14k ruthenium-coated fine nib and it’s a cartridge / converter pen (supplied), so your choice here is bottled ink.
The important details are as follows...
Condition: As New
Box: Nakaya
Nib: Fine
