Masterful Hands, Shared Vision

At Jesse Clayton Hill, we believe true artistry is often cultivated through collaboration. We seek out artisans who embody generations of traditional skill, bringing their unique vision to our bespoke canvases.

Our ongoing partnership with Japanese Makie artist Koji Tanaka exemplifies this. Tanaka-san, a third-generation master, employs centuries-old lacquering techniques, using gold and silver dust to create breathtaking miniature narratives on our pen barrels. His meticulous process transforms each writing instrument into a singular piece of wearable art, imbuing it with a depth of cultural heritage and unparalleled beauty.
