2022 was the year of Five Yellow Tigers, a very special time which occurs once every 36 years. The year of Five Yellow Tigers is deeply connected to the traditional Chinese folklore. The legend is rooted in the Nine Star Ki and the twelve signs of the Chinese zodiac. It is said that every 36 years the fifth star, which is associated with Saturn, and the Five Yellow Tigers meet to create an extraordinary powerful leader. This innavidual is gifted with natural disposition for leadership and possesses innate power that overshadows those around it. We wish that this Soaring Tiger brings you great prosperity and an abundance of peace. In celebration of this special year, Taccia's famous Chinkin artist presents one of the most delicate Japanese Maki-e techniques. The Empress Chinkin Tiger Maki-e LE pen is masterfully carved to accentuate the power exuding from the Soaring Tiger while highlighting the three-dimensional beauty and intricacies of the Chinkin technique. Each Taccia Empress Chinkin Tiger Maki-e LE pen is fitted with an exceptional 18K gold “King of Pen' nib, made in Japan exclusively for Taccia. This stunning pen is limited to 36 pens, available exclusively in North America.
The airtight cushion seal cap allows for a snug closure. Each limited edition fountain pen is innavidually numbered out of 36, and is accompanied with a certificate of authenticity.
