Maybelle (Betty) Dore started collecting Japanese antiques in the postwar years, during the 1950s and 1960s, when interest in Japanese art was generally very low. For her business she ventured to Japan on her own to assemble netsuke and related works of art, including pipe cases and kogo (incense containers). Betty was also a founding member and the first Chairwoman of the International Netsuke Society, Northern California Chapter.The Namiki workshop, established in 1925 by Ryosuke Namiki, founder of the Namiki Manufacturing Company (now Pilot Corporation), is renowned for its exceptional maki-e lacquer artistry applied to fountain pens. Collaborating with esteemed lacquer artists such as Shisui Rokkaku and Gonroku Matsuda, Namiki integrated traditional Japanese craftsmanship with writing instruments, creating pieces celebrated for their intricate designs and superior quality. In 1930, a significant partnership with Alfred Dunhill Ltd. led to the international distribution of these exquisite pens under the Dunhill-Namiki brand, enhancing their global prestige. Today, Namiki continues to produce high-end, handcrafted fountain pens that embody the fusion of art and functionality.Ippa was a skilled lacquer artist and a recognized member of the prestigious Kokkokai, a group of elite craftsmen formed under the direction of Ryosuke Namiki to create high-quality maki-e lacquerware for the Namiki brand. The Kokkokai brought together master artisans to apply traditional Japanese lacquer techniques to modern luxury items such as fountain pens and accessories.Auction comparison:Compare a closely related lacquer cigarette case by the Namiki company at Bonhams, Asian Art, 18 March 2020, Edinburgh, lot 20 (sold for GBP 1,530).
