Pelikan's limited edition Raden fountain pen. It is a masterpiece that beautifully harmonizes the craftsmanship of the German Pelikan company, boasting over 185 years of tradition and technology, with the highest level of traditional Japanese craftsmanship, world-renowned for its beauty and technique. The limited Raden fountain pen 'Stardust' is crafted by the Kaga Maki-e artisan group 'Housenka' from Ishikawa Prefecture. This is a Maki-e artisan group based in Yamanaka Onsen, Kaga City, represented by Maki-e artist Mushu Yamazaki, who has also worked on previous Pelikan Raden fountain pens.

In the first step of creating the Pelikan Raden limited edition fountain pen M1000 'Stardust', high-quality Japanese lacquer is used to express a deep black resembling the night sky on the surface. Three types of abalone shells, crushed using a special technique, are sprinkled in a stripe pattern over the black lacquer, carefully applied using a tool for Maki-e called a 'funzutsu' (powder tube). After that, the surface painting and polishing processes are repeated meticulously over time, leading to a beautiful finish with depth and gloss. This piece, treated with Raden craft, gives off a fantastical glow catching the light as if the entire fountain pen has captured stardust dancing in a quiet night sky, presenting a glamorous and profound expression.

Countless stardust pieces scattered in the night sky emitting a quiet sparkle look as if fragments of a dream are twinkling. That brilliance lights a soft glow in the heart, as if a small universe dwells in the palm of your hand. Inspired by the fleeting yet beautiful shine of stardust, the Pelikan Raden limited edition fountain pen M1000 'Stardust' is sold in a limited edition of 120 pieces in Japan. Each piece is carefully drawn with the Maki-e technique, bearing the signature of the creator 'Housenka' and a limited edition number.
