Pilot iroshizuku ink

The iroshizuku ink collection includes numerous expressive color shades inspired by the landscapes, plants, and seasons of Japan. The high-quality, free-flowing fountain pen inks are water-based and low-odor.

The name iroshizuku combines the Japanese words "iro" for color and "shizuku" for drop. Therefore, iroshizuku can be translated metaphorically as "color drop."

The 50 ml inks are offered in an elegant glass bottle. An indentation in the bottom of the bottle makes it easier to fill the converter or piston filler even when the ink level is low.
