Masters Of The Fountain Pen

[notVirtuThe3rd]

 

Thank you so much. Izumo Tamenuri fountain pen is my favorite! I'm happy to see beautiful fountain pens.

 

The Izumo fountain pen you watched on my YouTube channel is really rare model.

It's a limited edition only in Japan.

Hi there,

 

The Japanese fountain pen shop " Papylos 21 （Matsue City, Shimane, Pref., JAPAN）" was broadcast on television! I've just uploaded the video on my YouTube channel. Please enjoy watching and feel atmosphere of the amazing tasteful shop if you are interested in it.

thx!

I love these videos, It's so interesting how the lathe is set up, pointing towards the operator, instead of the usual lathe configuration with wood/metal lathes. It's interesting to see how everything can still be done with hand, just needs a TON of practice. I have secretly ripped all these vids off youtube, just so that I can save them, in case I need them and they have been removed, JUST because they are so fascinating. Please don't hate me...

Thank you so much for your particularly high interest to videos I've uploaded. As a matter of course, I've contacted relevant parties of this video and obtained a permission to upload. In addition, some Masters have given me an approval officially (on a face-to-face basis). So I DON'T believe these videos will be removed.

Hi there,

 

This time, I uploaded the video of MY CITY.
I live in Matsue City, Shimane, Pref., JAPAN.

 

Matsue is the capital city of Shimane Prefecture, attractively located at the eastern shores of Lake Shinji （Shinjiko）. Due to its location between Lake Shinji, Nakaumi （another lake） and the Sea of Japan, Matsue is also known as the "City of Water".

 

Matsue's attractions include its original castle and the former residence of Lafcadio Hearn. The city is also a good base to visit nearby Izumo Taisha, one of Japan's most important shrines and the Adachi Museum of Art with one of Japan's most beautiful landscape gardens.

 

...two videos （about a fountain pen） left.

Really beautiful city!

Thank you so much for sharing the amazingly artistic video.

[inkstick]

Thank you very much for your time to do subtitling for the latest video! Great job as usual.

So beautiful! It is a pity the tourism companies of my country do not include Matsue in thier itinerary (TOKYO – NIKKO – KAMAKURA – YOKOHAMA – HAKONE – ATAMI – KYOTO – OSAKA – HIROSHIMA).

Congratulations, Alex!!

 

There are two "Nakaya"s in Japan. You know one is "Nakaya Fountain Pen" connected with Platinum at Higashi-Ueno, Taito-ku, Tokyo. Another is "Nakaya Fountain Pen Shop" at Matsue City in Shimane Prefecture. The latter Nakaya has no relation to the former shop.

 

The rest of my video I'm going to upload is about "Nakaya Fountain Pen Shop" because I live in Matsue City and I'm a member of the voluntary supporter of the shop.

 

Anyway, both of two shops are amazingly superb!
