Galaxy Express Glass Dip Pen
Step into the mesmerizing universe captured within Yumi🪐 Yumi's Galaxy Express Glass Pen. This enchanting piece pays homage to the world of Japanese anime Galaxy Express 999, where a steam train journeys through the stars. Inside the glass, a tiny train glides through a cosmos adorned with stars crafted from synthetic opal, each glistening with a rainbow of colors as they catch the light with every stroke of the pen. Beyond these stars, intricate patterns emulate a galaxy in three-dimensional depth, reminiscent of NASA's Hubble Telescope image of galaxy NGC 2336.
While many artists begin with glass shafts that are already shaped to some extent, Yumi hand-sculpts each pen entirely from molten soft glass. This dedication results in unique variations in shape, length, and motif placement, much like the countless galaxies that inhabit our universe. Each pen is a one-of-a-kind cosmic journey, blending art and nature’s unpredictable beauty.
Bring this charming and fantastical universe to life in your hands and let its magic inspire every word you write.
