Kabazaiku is one of the representative traditional crafts created in Kakunodate, Akita Prefecture.
Because it uses the bark of wild cherry trees, this technique, also known as cherry bark work, has been practiced by lower-class samurai for over 200 years.
It was developed as a side job and has increased its product value in line with the trends of the times.
This Kaba-zaiku fountain pen is made by a company that has continued to make high-quality Kaba-zaiku for six generations since its founding in the 4th year of Kaei in the Edo period.
We used the techniques and materials of Denshiro Kakunodate, the signature brand of Fujiki Denshiro Shoten.
There are barks with various patterns, and you can feel the vitality of the tree by making use of its natural state.
In addition, the items that are touched every day have a glossy finish that is unique to wild cherry blossoms, and their charm is endless.
