Kuretake Meiji No Iro Shikon fountain pen ink is a rich darker shade of purple and comes packaged in a 20ml rectangular glass bottle. Shikon ink is based on a color that was so popular for women's clothing that the Meiji Era was nicknamed the Purple Era.

Kuretake ZIG is honoring their 120th anniversary by going back to the Meiji Era of Japan with MEIJI NO IRO Inks! During this era more than a century ago, new developments in clothing production and the introduction of Western methods like the use of synthetic dyes made more colors accessible in Japan. With new fabric techniques came new colors and gradients that became more popular, and eventually came to define the colors of the Meiji Era.

Kuretake fountain pen ink is made in Japan, is smooth-flowing and specifically formulated to be safe for use in Kuretake Karappo pens, dip pens, fountain pens and more!
