The Manyo Ink collection by Sailor Pen, Japan draws inspiration from Manyo-shu, Japan’s oldest anthology of poetry. Each ink color captures the beauty of nature — from blooming flowers and shifting skies to tranquil waters — just as described in the verses of ancient poets. Formulated with Sailor’s renowned water-based dye ink technology, Manyo inks deliver smooth, consistent flow and vivid shading that delights writers and artists alike.

Akebi, meaning chocolate vine, is a deep magenta-purple ink with rich, elegant shading that evokes the ripened fruit of the Akebi plant found in Japan’s autumn countryside. Depending on the pen and paper, it reveals tones ranging from vibrant plum to wine-purple, offering a captivating depth and warmth to your writing.
