forme. - Penya Ink - Kamogawa Hanaikada - Morning

Capture the fleeting beauty of spring mornings along Kyoto’s Kamo River with Kamogawa Hanaikada Morning Ink from forme. Both the store and warehouse are located near the Kamo River, and passing by it each day inspired this original ink series, created to express the river’s changing scenery through the seasons and throughout the day.

Kamogawa Hanaikada Morning is inspired by the seasonal sight of scattered cherry blossom petals floating across the river's surface, gathering into gentle streams that resemble drifting rafts. The color combines pink and blue tones, representing the cherry blossom petals and the waters of the Kamo River. A cool blue base evokes the freshness of the morning river, while the addition of water enhances the ink’s transparency and brightness, creating a clear, refreshing atmosphere. Together, these colors reflect the shifting appearance of the Hanaikada from morning to evening.

This ink contains no glitter, making it suitable for fountain pens while allowing its layered tones and subtle color variations to shine on different papers.

The ink is packaged in a bagasse paper box made from sugarcane waste, an eco-friendly material that gives the packaging a soft, natural texture.

Even if only a little, we hope this ink lets you experience the beauty of Kyoto’s Kamo River in spring through your writing.
