Kyoto Ink Kyo-no-oto 40ml Bottled Ink - Hisui

Experience the serene brilliance of Kyoto Ink Kyo-no-oto Hisui, a captivating turquoise dye ink inspired by the graceful hues of the kingfisher’s feathers. “Hisui,” meaning jade, reflects the shimmering blue-green shade that once symbolized purity and prosperity in Japan’s Heian period. This luminous tone later became synonymous with the treasured jade gemstone, admired for its tranquil and auspicious glow.

Developed by TAG STATIONERY in collaboration with the Kyoto Plant Dyeing Laboratory, Hisui captures the refined depth of traditional Japanese color culture, reimagined for today’s writing and art. Each stroke of this ink flows with elegance, offering delicate shading that reveals the calm beauty of its inspiration.
