The Platinum 3776 Century Kanazawa Gold Leaf Ascending Dragon is an artisanal masterpiece that fuses the tradition of Japanese writing with the refined art of Kanazawa-haku. This special edition depicts an ascending dragon, a symbol of prosperity and protection in Japanese culture, carefully painted and decorated by hand on a glossy black resin body. The Kanazawa-haku series is renowned for its meticulous application of genuine gold leaf, laid down by skilled artisans who continue centuries of artistic heritage.
Concept and design

In this edition, the dragon rises powerfully among clouds and golden accents, adding deep spiritual and aesthetic symbolism to the piece. The combination of traditional techniques with Platinum’s contemporary design philosophy makes this a highly valuable fountain pen for collectors and enthusiasts of Japanese calligraphy alike.
