Description
Coloring technology inspired by traditional technique for coloring metal. The fusion of a coloring technique from Takaoka, Toyama Prefecture with over 400 years of heritage, and innovative technologies continually being developed there, has given birth to metal coloring offering a rich range of colors.
The brown patina they have chosen this time, is Hanmon-Kujyaku (mottled peacock), an original color inspired by the traditional Nuka-yaki metalcoloring technique. Controlling chemicals and flame heat, chemical reaction is used to bring out vivid colors on brass. Each piece colored by hand, and the same kind of coloring cannot be achieved by painting. Furthermore, this traditional coloring technique hitherto only possible with cast metal, was successfully evolved to make the expression possible on sheet copper thinner than 1 millimeter, enabling Sailor Pen to create writinginstruments with this metal coloring method. This metal coloring gets even better with age, like a pair of denims does the more you wear it.
When master craftsmen work their magic on metal materials with their creativeimagination, original colors come to life. The brown patina used for this collection is anintricate Hanmon-Kujyaku finish, which is a color born through a series ofcoincidences. The pattern of this finish has an exotic beauty that is reminiscent of apeacock. Each CYLINT Patina writing instrument has its own unique pattern, no piece identical to another.
When you feel the need to clean your CYLINT Patina pen, wipe gently with a dampcloth that has been wrung out well, then wipe again with a dry cloth, and always storein a dried state. Any residual moisture may cause the piece to corrode/becometarnished. Make sure not to get organic solvents such as alcohol or vinegar on thepiece, as it may cause tarnishing. Any surface scratches caused by friction, etc. maylead to oxidation, promoting patina growth, corrosion or tarnishing.It is the nature of brass to change color over time and this change is a trait to becherished. Therefore, returns/exchanges are not accepted for reasons such as patinagrowth, corrosion or tarnishing.
