The Manyo Ink collection by Sailor Pen, Japan draws inspiration from Manyo-shu, Japan’s oldest anthology of poetry. Each ink color captures the beauty of nature — from blooming flowers and shifting skies to tranquil waters — just as described in the verses of ancient poets. Formulated with Sailor’s renowned water-based dye ink technology, Manyo inks deliver smooth, consistent flow and vivid shading that delights writers and artists alike.
Azuki, meaning red bean, captures the warmth and nostalgia of one of Japan’s most beloved traditional ingredients. This rich reddish-brown ink with subtle rose and cocoa undertones mirrors the glossy hue of sweet azuki beans used in wagashi confections. It shades gently from soft russet to deep mahogany, creating a balanced, comforting tone perfect for journaling or correspondence.
