Witness the graceful flight of these birds across the beautiful spring skies at sunset.Summer – “Komakusa”: Dicentra, known as the “bleeding heart” and the queen of alpine flora, thrives gloriously in the challenging summer mountain climate, serving as the muse for this pen.Autumn – “Nadeshiko”: The delicate flowers of “Yamato-nadeshiko” (dianthus superbus) lend their elegant colors to lush fields along crystal-clear rivers, offering inspiration for this pen.Winter – “Kamoshika”: Emulating the quiet philosopher of the forest, the serow, which gracefully braves the snowscape in its winter fur, this pen captures the essence of winter’s serenity.
