Kuroganeiro is one of Kuretake's Meiji No Iro bottled inks: a range inspired by the colour palette of the Meiji era (1868-1912). It's a muted, subdued bluish-green. Dark enough to read as almost-black in small writing, but revealing its blue-green character in broader strokes or light washes.
Kuretake have been making ink since 1902, which is the Meiji era itself, so this range feels less like a marketing exercise than a company digging into its own archive. The bottle has a wide opening for easy dip-pen use or fountain pen refilling.
- Water-based dye ink in Kuroganeiro (dark subdued bluish-green)
- 20ml bottle with wide pen-friendly opening
- Suits dip pens, glass pens, and fountain pen refilling
- Made in Nara, Japan
