Pelikan doesn't do "limited edition" by halves, and the Four Seasons Lucky Charm is proof. Based on the Souverän M1000, this one's been handed over to master artisan Shinsai Ishikura of the Kaga Hōshukai artists' association, who's decorated it using the Kaga Togidashi-Takamaki-e technique, involving layer upon layer of urushi lacquer and precious metallic powders, hand-polished to a depth you can't really get from a machine.
The design leans on playing cards, of all things: the four suits reimagined as the four seasons, each with its own motif: cherry blossoms for spring, flowing water for summer, autumn leaves, snow for winter. There's a nice bit of symbolism buried in there too and it's a lot to take in, but that's rather the point. Only 123 have been made worldwide, so this isn't one for the "maybe next month" pile.
