Kakimori Colour Specimen Inks – AW25 Seasonal Edition

Description

A study in hue and harmony, the Kakimori Colour Specimen Ink series celebrates the quiet beauty of colour found in everyday life. Each shade is inspired by fleeting moments — the glint of sunlight on glass, the hush of twilight, the bloom of a spring petal — and carefully mixed by the Kakimori team in Tokyo. Designed for dip pens and converters, these inks flow smoothly and dry with a soft, balanced finish. Whether you collect colours or simply enjoy the ritual of writing, this series invites you to rediscover the small, vivid pleasures of the day.

The Colours

The Colour specimen series is inspired by encounters with colour in everyday moments. 

• • 202 Nostalgic knit – “The colour of the sweater my father often wore when I was young. It’s the colour I remember most, more than the sweater itself.”
  • 203 Beneath the snow – “The green of life, patiently awaiting spring beneath the snow.”
  • 204 The night sky lingers – “The silent sky, still cloaked in night before dawn. A blue that invites soft, dreamy gazing.”
  • 205 The way home – “The warm hue that arrives after sunset, as the sky changes and lights begin to glow. ”
  • 206 Coffee milk – “A comforting cup of hot coffee milk on a cold day. Our family has ours wth plenty of milk.”
  • 207 Empty vase – “A lonesome vase on a winter’s morning. The colour of longing for the blooming season.”
  • 208 After school in the clubroom – “Losing track of time in the high school darkroom. A shade of nostalgia, blending the colours of film and memory.”
  • 209 Velour – “A favourite velour fabric. A glamorous black that brings life to the winter months.”
