24 sublime shades

Draw your inspiration from Nature's breath and allow Iroshizuku inks to take you on a poetic journey. A veritable ode to Japanese landscapes and homage to the art of writing.

The perfect accompaniment to Pilot's range of Fine Writing instruments, iroshizuku inks are available in 24 sublime colors, opening a door to a world of infinite refinement.

The name 'iroshizuku' is a combination of the Japanese words 'iro' (coloring), expressing high standards and a wide range of colors, and 'shizuku' (droplet), which embodies the very image of dripping water.
Each ink name derives from the beauty of Japanese natural landscapes and plants, all of which contribute to the depth of each individual hue. Enjoy Japan's rich and subtle color aesthetic as you write.

Each beautifully presented bottle adds an opulent, luxurious edge to your creative and everyday writing.

  • Bottled Fountain Pen Ink

    Choose bottled fountain pen ink if you want the widest color selection and a more refillable writing experience. Bottled ink works with compatible fountain pens using a converter, piston filling system, or other bottle-fill mechanism.

  • Fountain Pen Ink Cartridges

    Choose ink cartridges if you want a simple, convenient refill option with less setup and easier travel. Cartridges are a good choice for everyday writing, school, work, and anyone who wants a faster refill process.

  • Flushing your fountain pen regularly—

    especially when changing ink colors, every six weeks, or before storing the pen—is essential to prevent ink residue buildup, muddy color mixing, and clogged feeds that can lead to scratchy or inconsistent writing.
