The Scribo Piuma Hane Murakumo fountain pen evokes gathering clouds through candle-smoked Urushi, with markings unique to each lacquered surface.
Candle smoke creates the gathering clouds of Murakumo. Held over a candle flame while still fresh, the white lacquer takes on individual smoke markings. The Nuritate Urushi finish then dries without further sanding or polishing powders, preserving both the pattern and subtle traces of the process. Murakumo means 'gathering clouds' in Japanese.
Japanese Urushi masters adjust the lacquer mixture for the season, temperature, and humidity. Their judgment shapes the light brown, smoked finish, applied in Japan over handcrafted resin. Piuma's oval shape and two flat facets remain beneath the lacquer, with ruthenium-finished nib and section ring.
The pen has a Scribo 18k gold nib and an ebonite feed. It accepts ink cartridges or a converter for bottled ink and closes with a screw-on cap.
Made in Italy in a limited production of 110 fountain pens, Hane Murakumo comes with a pouch handmade from authentic Japanese kimono silk. It measures 144.5 mm capped, has a barrel width of 15.6 mm, and weighs 30 g with the cap.
Smoke from a candle marks freshly applied white lacquer. The Nuritate Urushi finish dries without further sanding or polishing powders, preserving the pattern and subtle traces of the process. Those markings evoke Murakumo, Japanese for 'gathering clouds'.
The master adjusts the lacquer mixture for the season, temperature, and humidity, as well as applying the lacquer and smoke decoration. With no later sanding or polishing powders to even out the finish, those decisions remain visible in the completed surface.
The light brown, smoked palette is shared, but the candle smoke produces individual markings. No two patterns are exactly alike, so their distribution may differ from the photographed pen.
