Sailor Manyo Fountain Pen Ink (50mL) - Nadeshiko

$35.00

Sailor Manyo Fountain Pen Ink (50mL) - Nadeshiko

New from Sailor is the Manyo ink collection—available exclusively outside of Japan—a selection of sixteen colours inspired by the flowers referenced in Manyoshu, or "Collection of Ten Thousand Leaves"; an anthology of ancient Japanese poetry. Themes of love, travel, celebration, and the passage of time are prominent, but it is the Japanese flora that takes centre stage, with more than 1,500 of the poems referencing plants and flowers.

Ink up with these vibrant hues to remind you of the sunshine on a warm summer's day, of the resilient flowers that grow along the sidewalk, the kaleidoscope of colours in icicles, or to chase the winter blues away.

50mL

New Sailor Ink Obsession

I ordered a 2 mL sample as I am getting back into using my fountain pens and had never used a Sailor ink before, but had seen all the hype. Well, I get it now.
This ink is so pretty! The base colour of this ink is the gorgeous medium-light blue from the photos above, but the shading makes it look different. On Leuchtturm 120gsm paper with a Lamy Safari 1.1 stub nib, the ink dries mostly to a lighter blue with the ink pools drying to the base colour and a gorgeous lavender colour! It also works on other papers, though not as pronounced. It was such a fun surprise to see, and people have been commenting on my notes/events.
