Meet Palette-kun, a clear glass ink dish and pen rest that debuted in autumn 2024. Just add three or four drops of ink with a dropper or glass rod, and this charming little figure becomes an effortless mini dish for your desk. Its slightly thick tail doubles as a handy resting spot for your pen.
Made from transparent glass, Palette-kun lets every ink shade show through clearly, so the orange seen in photos one through three is simply the color of the ink used for display, not the glass itself. It works wonderfully for glitter inks and water brushes, adding a touch of whimsical utility to your calligraphy or sketching desk.
Palette-kun is part of a playful series that occasionally takes on different animal shapes, a small surprise for those who collect them. Glass ink accessories like this one are beloved among Japanese stationery fans who enjoy savoring the subtle beauty of ink colors up close.
Palette-kun Ink Dish and Pen Rest, released in fall 2024. Made of clear glass for easy viewing of ink colors.
Add about 3 to 4 drops of ink with a dropper or glass rod to use it as a small ink dish. The slightly thicker tail section serves as a pen rest. Suitable for shimmer inks and water brushes. The orange shown in photos 1 to 3 is ink, not part of the product.
