Kyo No Oto

Kyo No Oto is a unique series of inks inspired by traditional Japanese colors from the Heian period (794–1185), recreated using modern techniques. Each ink color tells its own story and offers a distinct personality.

Developed by Kyoto Kusoki Dyeing Laboratory and TAG STATIONERY, these dye-based inks create beautiful shading and gradations. Water-soluble, Kyo No Oto inks allow for artistic effects like blending or extending color with a water brush.
