Hummingbird and Fuchsia

AP Limited Editions presents Hummingbird and Fuchsia, a charming Maki-e lacquer art pen that whispers of fleeting moments and quiet beauty. Crafted in Togidashi Maki-e, the design captures a hummingbird in graceful motion, hovering near fuchsia blossoms that seem to sway in an unseen breeze. Their forms are brought to life with shimmering shells and pearl powder, while Kirikane accents in the background create a soft, dreamlike sense of movement. The AP logo, rendered in Togidashi technique with Hirame gold powder, glows gently against the lacquered surface. As with all things touched by time, the Togidashi Maki-e technique gives the pen a deeper, duskier hue at first, but with use, its colors will bloom, revealing their true radiance—like a memory growing more luminous with each passing day.
