Product Description
Sailor Manyo Aka-Mai ink is a dark pink shade that evokes the color of Aka-Mai rice. The rich, earthy pink tones reflect the natural, unrefined color of the rice, which has a reddish-brown hue when uncooked and takes on a gentle pinkish tint when prepared. The ink's color is soft yet vibrant, capturing both the natural beauty and the cultural significance of this ancient rice variety.
The inks embody the colors, seasons, and symbolism of the foods that shaped life in ancient Japan, from the simple meals of the common people to the lavish banquets of the aristocracy. Each ink offers a visual and emotional connection to the food culture and poetic traditions of the past.
Here we have made the swatch for each color and you will be able to see the actual shades.
