The Hobonichi Techo uses 12 soft colours across the book. The TSUKI no IRO stationery series incorporates these colours into simple designs.

The Mini Ink Bottle Set (Jan-Jun) is a special collaboration made with Kakimori, a stationery shop that crafts fountain pens, inks, notebooks and more, all created for people who write with joy.

Kakimori have custom-blended twelve inks to match the printing colours of the twelve months in the Hobonichi Techo. This set holds the six months from January to June, each packed into a small bottle just the right size to experiment with. The July to December set is a separate item, sold on its own. If you use the Frost fountain pen or rollerball pen, one bottle refills your pen about three times.

The ink is water-resistant and resistant to fading even when exposed to light, making it a wonderful choice for writing things you want to preserve for a long time, like diary entries. It is also a perfect set for someone trying ink for the first time, or as a gift for someone special.

We recommend shaking the pigment ink well before use and cleaning your writing instrument regularly afterwards. We hope it becomes a cherished companion as you quietly put your thoughts into words each day.

Why You’ll Love It

• Six months, six colours: January through June arrive in the shades the techo prints those months in, so you can date an entry by its ink alone. The other half of the year is sold separately.
• Small enough to be generous with: Each 2.7 ml bottle refills a Frost pen roughly three times, which is plenty to decide whether a colour suits you without committing to a full-sized bottle.
• Built to last on the page: The pigment ink resists water and daylight, so a line you write today never fades into a rumour, and the little aluminium caps sit cool and knurled between your fingers.
