This deep black is the créme de la créme of Japanese-made inks. It's formulated by Sailor, a company with over 100 years experience, renowned for their beautiful writing instruments as well as their inks.  

This is a waterproof*, light-fast archival deep black ink, perfect for creating anything that you'd like to last a long time (with no fading or reactions with the paper) or if you want to apply more inks or watercolours over linework without the risk of smudging.

It's slightly different from my own pigment ink with a slightly quicker drying time and is an even deeper black.

This beautiful ink is the perfect pairing with a Tom's Studio Lumos, Wren, or Fountain Pen. Each bottle holds 50ml of stunning ink, allowing your creativity to flow across countless pages.

*Waterproof? Well, almost. This ink is highly water-resistant, meaning it’ll stay true under a colour wash – provided you’ve given it time to fully dry. But if you go in heavy with a very wet overwash, you might notice some smudging. Unlike true waterproof inks (which often contain plastic binders), the Sailor Kiwa-guro ink works beautifully with the Wren and Lumos – balancing flow, performance, and durability.

Search for my perfect pen and ink

It’s been going on for a while, the search.
30 years ago I had a pen that was perfect for me, it had ink as black as night and a beautiful, consistent fine line. It traveled with me everywhere, my notebooks were inspired, it never let me down, then they (Rotring) stopped making it. It used a disposable sealed in unit (bad for the environment ☹️) and stockiest quickly sold out. Since then I’ve been searching for a replacement, without success… until now… maybe.
I’ve recently received a Lumos Pro from Tom’s Studio and early signs are positive… the Japanese nibs have all the characteristics I’ve struggled to find, and I’ve combined it with a deep black pigment ink… darker than the devils soul 😳. It’s early days but maybe, just maybe…
