Kakimori Pigment Fountain Pen Ink - Suitable for FP and Dip Pens

A charming little globe of colour, ready to spill tales onto paper. Designed by Makoto Koizumi and made in Japan, the Kakimori Pigment Ink bottle is equal parts desk ornament and daily essential. Its pleasingly squat, spherical form isn’t just delightful to behold—it’s built for balance and ease when dipping or refilling. And the colours? Each one is a poetic journey, named after onomatopoeic Japanese expressions that evoke everything from a quiet evening sky to the fizz of a shared drink.

Each shade comes with its own quiet story. Po is a tender blush, the colour of shy affection. Torori recalls a creamy yolk, rich and golden. Tototo hums like rosé poured with care. Karari is your endlessly blue sky in ink form, while Kurun spirals with leafy green calm. For depth, there’s Toppuri, a soft navy that whispers of starlit nights, and Soyo, a breeze caught on the page. Zabun crashes in with deep-sea blue, Mukuri stirs with earthy warmth, and Koton lands softly—a near-black for contemplative writing. Together, they form a palette of moods and moments, each ready to flow from nib to narrative.

Small Details, Big Difference

• Built for Daily Use: With a 35ml volume and sturdy, balanced design, it’s ideal for everyday fountain or dip pen writing.

• Colourful Characters: Ten original hues inspired by Japanese sound imagery—each with its own story, each a joy to write with.

• Pigment-Based Brilliance: Fade, water, and smudge resistant. Because ink should linger in memory, not on your sleeves.
