Green Glaze Fountain Pen Ink

All Kyo No Iro inks are handmade in Kyoto, Japan using traditional dyeing techniques and materials.

Ryokuyu-iro is a shading pale green color with silver shimmer.

Ryokuyu (緑釉) is one of the oldest glazes, used to create green pottery in China for thousands of years. In Japan, it started being produced in the Heian period (794-1185) mainly to be used for royalty.

Kyo No Oto writing inks reproduce traditional Japanese colors used in the Heian period with modern techniques and interpretations. Each color features a unique name and story.

It is a characteristic ink that makes use of the gradation of light and shade using the bleeding characteristic of dyes.

Dye ink is soluble in water, so after writing with ink, you can use it for various expressions such as "blurring" or stretching the color thinly with a water brush.
