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.
Chigaya, meaning cogon grass, evokes the quiet beauty of Japan’s autumn fields. This deep charcoal-black ink with subtle blue-teal undertones captures the earthy stillness of grasslands at dusk. Under certain light, faint hints of brown or silver sheen appear, adding depth and sophistication to every stroke. Its understated hue makes it a versatile and contemplative ink for both writing and artistic expression.
