【About Kyo-no-oto Series】
"Kyo-no-oto" is a series of writing inks that recreates traditional Japanese colors used since the Heian period using modern techniques and interpretations. Each color is characterized by its unique name and story.
This is a dye ink independently developed by TAG STATIONERY and the "Kyoto Plant Dye Research Institute," which consists of textile dyeing experts.
This characteristic ink makes use of the dye's tendency to bleed, creating beautiful gradations of light and dark shades.
〇Since dye ink is water-soluble, you can use it for various expressions such as "blurring" with a water brush after writing, or extending the color thinly.
