Three varieties of koi, bamboo leaves and a waterlily are rendered in high and low relief, with bubbles and petals interspersed in high relief and a guilloché ground of pond ripples spreading from each element. The bamboo motif repeats on the gripping section and clip; 鯉 (Koi) appears in high relief on the crown and David Oscarson is engraved in Japanese on the cap ring. This fountain pen is finished in Sapphire Blue with 18-karat gold vermeil over .925 sterling silver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 10.0pt 0cm 5.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"color: #8C6F4E;\"\u003eTHE CRAFT\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 6.0pt;\"\u003eHand-crafted from .925 sterling silver. Each component passes through multiple stages of precision engraving to create the guilloché pattern, then hard enamel — glass, water and metal oxides ground by hand with a mortar and pestle — is applied with a quill, kiln-fired at over 1,000 °F, filed back by hand with a diamond file and fired again until the enamel fills every valley of the engraving. The pieces are then polished and buffed to the velvet finish of true translucent hard enamel. A five-year apprenticeship is required to master the process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 10.0pt 0cm 5.0pt 0cm;\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"color: #8C6F4E;\"\u003eTHE COLLECTION\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin-bottom: 6.0pt;\"\u003eThe Koi Collection is the 27th in the David Oscarson series of Limited Edition writing instruments.
