Chidori on Great Wave Glass Dip Pen with Pen Rest
This striking Stormy Chidori Glass Pen features a Chidori pattern soaring over tumultuous waves, reminiscent of Hokusai's "Great Wave." Crafted from glass with a unique coloration that captures the essence of sea foam, this pen beautifully embodies symbols of good fortune and prosperity. The design suggests a Chidori navigating stormy seas with ease. It comes complete with a specially designed pen rest, blending functionality with a deep respect for traditional Japanese art.
The artisan behind this creation, Tomoya, is a young talent who began with self-taught burner work and primarily uses traditional Japanese motifs in his pieces. Artists who can create cool works using Japanese traditional patterns are rare, making this piece not only unique but also a testament to our mission to preserve Japanese tradition and craftsmanship.
Of course, the pen is perfectly functional for writing and sketching comfortably once dipped in ink. It is ideal for those who value art and special stationery.

Gabi Kobo: Modern Craft, Timeless Tradition
Gabi Kobo is a studio where art meets tradition under the skilled hands of Tomoya Sakagami. The studio's name derives from the elegant 'Gabizan' plant, blending with Sakagami's own name to symbolize the beauty and grace of his creations. Each glass pen crafted by Tomoya is not just a tool but a piece of art, reflecting his commitment to aesthetics and functionality. He started in burner work out of curiosity after stumbling upon a beginner's kit in a department store, and his passion grew as he explored and mastered the craft independently.
Tomoya's design choices are deeply influenced by the beauty and continuity of traditional Japanese patterns. He chooses motifs such as hemp leaves and the Shippo Tsunagi not merely for their traditional value but for their stunning visual appeal and the intricate perspectives they offer. His innovative method involves connecting multiple elongated beads, allowing for detailed pattern work without compromising the integrity of the glass. This technique, along with his use of chemical reactions in the glass to create unique color effects, sets his pens apart in both beauty and construction.
