Kyoto TAG Kyo-no-Oto No. 13 Seiheki captures a tranquil blue-green drawn from Kyoto's historic color tradition. The shade feels composed and legible, with a soft, natural saturation that flatters both cream and bright white papers while revealing gentle tonal shifts in everyday writing.
Color & Character
Seiheki leans toward a refined teal, producing nuanced shading that adds dimension without sacrificing clarity. On smoother papers it shows delicate haloing and gradation; on more absorbent stocks it reads clean and confident, making it an easy signature color for notes, journaling, and correspondence.
Writing Experience
This dye-based fountain pen ink offers balanced flow and tidy performance for daily use. It cleans up readily and pairs well with a range of nib widths, from fines that keep lines crisp to broader nibs that coax out more shading. Dry times and saturation will vary with paper and nib, allowing you to tune the look from subtle to expressive.
