Mayabi, translated into English means genteelness. There
are three motifs in this series which flourished during the
ancient Japanese dynasty of the Hei-an period between the 8th
and 12th centuries. The first is called Kai-Awase, which is
a shell game; the second is called Bugaku, which is Dancing
Music; and the third is called Soushi-E, which is picture book.
These pens are fashioned from an ebonite material and are available
in medium or broad nibs only. Each pen is housed in its own
specially designed Urushi lacquered two piece black box. Inside
you will find a leather drawstring pouch to hold the pen along
with writing paper, envelopes and a special bottle of Pilot
ink.
