Kakimori Colour Specimen Inks - AW25 Seasonal Edition
Description
A study in hue and harmony, the Kakimori Colour Specimen Ink series celebrates the quiet beauty of colour found in everyday life. Each shade is inspired by fleeting moments — the glint of sunlight on glass, the hush of twilight, the bloom of a spring petal — and carefully mixed by the Kakimori team in Tokyo. Designed for dip pens and converters, these inks flow smoothly and dry with a soft, balanced finish. Whether you collect colours or simply enjoy the ritual of writing, this series invites you to rediscover the small, vivid pleasures of the day.
