Dear Customer,
It’s taken a while, but we are finally launching two new fountain pen inks, « Akadaidai » and « Kokeiro »! Both are based on traditional Japanese colour references.
Once again, both inks are manufactured to our precise specifications exclusively for us by British heritage brand Diamine, a company that has 150 years experience in the production of inks.
Akadaidai (raddish orange) is a beautiful orangey red with lots of shading. We were inspired by the colour used in Shinto shrines in Japan.
Kokeiro (green moss) is a beautiful lighter green inspired by moss in Kyoto temple gardens.
We were inspired by the colour through our love of Japanese gardens and the similarity with the green of freshly prepared matcha tea which we have often enjoyed in temple gardens.
Both are available in 80ml bottles.
Yours sincerely,
Ateliers Phileas
