[About the Kyoto Sounds Series]
"Kyoto no Oto" is a series of writing inks that recreate traditional Japanese colors used since the Heian period with modern techniques and interpretations. Each color has its own unique name and story.
This dye ink was developed exclusively by TAG STATIONERY in collaboration with the Kyoto Plant Dyeing Laboratory, a group of dyeing and weaving experts.
This is a distinctive ink that takes advantage of the bleeding characteristic of dyes to create a gradation of light and dark shades.
- Because dye ink dissolves in water, you can use it to write with the ink and then use a water brush to blur or thin the color, allowing you to create a variety of different expressions.

ラメや顔料が含まれるインクは、万年筆内部の細かい機構に詰まりを起こす可能性があるため、基本的にはおすすめしておりません。ただし、中字以上の太めのペン先であれば、こまめなお手入れを前提に「自己責任」で楽しんでいただくことも可能です。筆記表現を広げたい方にとっては、魅力的な選択肢となるかもしれません。
Shimmer or pigment-based inks are generally not recommended for fountain pens, as they may clog the delicate inner feed system. However, if you use a medium or broader nib and clean your pen regularly, you may enjoy them at your own risk. For those seeking to expand expressive possibilities, they can be an exciting option.
