The Opus 88 Zodiac snake fountain pen is crafted of Japanese ebonite and has an unbroken 925 sterling silver serpent with white-gold plating circling the barrel and cap.

The Opus 88 Zodiac Snake fountain pen (released in July 2023) is a spectacular rework of a previous version. The snake's body is riveted to the pen in 11 separate places, each of which is painstakingly topped with crystals - a laborious operation that offers an exceptional finishing touch. Mr Tsai Tsung-hsien carved the pen's seal, which is preserved by a coat of transparent varnish placed over Japanese ebonite.
