[Meiji no Iro] is a color ink inspired by the colors that were popular during the Meiji period, and each color has its own background color of that period. It can be used with fountain pens, glass pens, dip pens, and Kuretake Karappo pens.
*Grapecha [grape tea]
In the Meiji era (1868-1912), purple was considered a noble color used by the nobility at that time, and ebicha was often used to replace purple because it was too awe-inspiring to remain purple. Ebicha is a dark red color with a slight purple tinge. The Meiji era was a time when the schoolgirl boom flourished, and the popularity of [ebicha] and [grape tea] colors increased as women's hakama. |
