The term "ura-hairo" (underside of leaves) refers to a pale green colour that is more subdued and dull than the front of the leaves, like the underside of leaves, which has been passed down since the Heian period.
TAG Stationery's Kyo No Oto Collection focuses on the Sounds of Kyoto, these writing inks that recreate traditional Japanese colours used since the Heian period with modern techniques and interpretations. Each colour has its own unique name and story.
This dye ink was developed exclusively by TAG STATIONERY in collaboration with the Kyoto Plant Dyeing Laboratory, a group of dyeing and weaving experts.
