Description Sailor Manyo Fuji fountain pen ink is a soft shade of purple that shades out to violet and blue colors, and comes as a 3ml sample in a plastic vial with a dip at the bottom to allow you to easily get every drop, labeled with the name of the ink brand and color. In pens with broader nibs that can create pooling of the ink on the paper, this pooling and shading can create some amazing depth and visual interest in writing, calligraphy and art pieces. Flowers have always been a popular poetic subject dating back to ancient Japanese history. What better theme for Sailor’s Manyo Ink Series? Based on popular flowers frequently mentioned in Japanese “Manyoshu” – an anthology of compiled ancient poems, Sailor has chosen these dye-based ink colors to best represent this vibrant palette range. Sailor fountain pen ink is made in Japan, and is very well behaved, has good flow, and is easy to rinse out of your fountain pen. Having trouble deciding between colors?
