Teranishi Chemical Industry Guitar Taisho Roman Haikara Fountain Pen Ink

Step into a bygone era of Japanese creativity with Guitar Taisho Roman Haikara Ink by Teranishi Chemical Industry. Inspired by the dynamic Taisho era of the early twentieth century, this fountain pen ink collection brings a sense of vintage romance and expressive color to your daily writing.

Teranishi Chemical Industry began its journey in 1916 with writing inks as its flagship product. This series honors that heritage by topping each bottle with a restored version of the "Guitar" trademark from the company's founding days. A hanging tag comes with every bottle, meant to be coated in ink and used as your own color swatch sample.

This water-based dye ink comes in a 40ml bottle weighing 120 grams, with bottle dimensions of 44 by 44 by 70 millimeters and a box size of 73 by 73 by 75 millimeters. Choose from sixteen nostalgic shades, each named and tinted to evoke a mood of the era: Salon de Violet, an intellectual purple for a cultured life; Melancholic Blue, a pensive shade for dreamers chasing ideals; Innocent Mauve, a soft, dreamlike hue of quiet joy; Emotional Olive, a heady yellow-olive for losing yourself in a story; Smoky Navy, a hazy indigo for setting off toward the dawn; Brilliant Mint, a striking blue-green that colors the age with flair; Traveling Sepia, a wandering brown longing for unseen worlds; Nighttime Soda, a tipsy ice blue for savoring a dreamy evening; Orchestra Tangerine, a passionate red-orange that dances with the finest melodies; Modern Red, a bold red celebrating new ideas and culture; Gentle Green, a refined green reflecting the spread of popular entertainment; Opera Rose, an elegant rose for hearts stirred by dazzling art; Lady Emerald, a sophisticated emerald with an air of freedom; Nostalgic Honey, a sweet amber for minds adrift in dreams; Classic Burgundy, a tasteful red-brown that quickens the pulse with graceful design; and Antique Black, a dignified brown-black that lights the way through changing times.
