Product Description
Founded in 2014 in Tamsui, Taiwan, Lennon Tool Bar is inspired by the traditional art of indigo dyeing—an industry that flourished in Taiwan over a century ago. At the time, Taiwan exported doroai, a key raw material for indigo dyes, to the Japanese Empire.
The brand draws from these historic dyeing techniques and classic indigo tones, translating them into a modern and distinctive colour palette.
The Lennon Tool Bar 2025 Taiwan Design Expo collection explores the connection between color, thought, and history. It features three limited-edition fountain pen inks, with 400 pieces per color, each linked to defining chapters of Changhua’s identity.
E Hua Shi takes its name from a historically charged expression. During Japanese rule, Changhua was called a “land of corrupting ideas” for its advocacy of equality, education, autonomy, and civic awareness. What was intended as an accusation became a badge of pride.
The people of Changhua embraced E Hua Shi, the City of Radical Thought. This ink celebrates that bold, transformative spirit—inviting reflection, questioning, and the courage to create change.
