Rumours, Rumours Namiki Emporer Limited Edition 2012 Yabusame

Yabusame is traditional japanese mounted archery. It is a yearly ceremony in which archers clad in the hunting outfit of medieval warriors shoot at three targets as they race by on horseback.

The yabusame events are held across Japan and the best known ceremony we know of is the held every September 16 event at the Tsurugaoka Hachiman Shrine in Kamakura.

This year Namiki launched for the first time in the maki-e series to our knowledge, the first thing using the Yabusame as the theme.

This beautiful Namiki maki-e Emporer size limited edition fountain pen is painted by artisan Michifumi Kawagaki san.

It will be available locally in end-October.

The allocation to Singapore is very limited. Start making your resversation before it is too late.
