PILOT Iroshizuku Bottled Fountain Pen Ink, Yama-Budo, Crimson Glory Vine (Purple Red) 50ml Bottle (69217)

Pilot Iroshizuku inks are a joy to use. I use a Pilot Kakuno with Syo-Ro (dew on pine tree), Shin-ryoku (forest green), and Yama-budo (crimson glory vine). They really show off what this line does best: rich color and very smooth, reliable flow. These inks feel buttery and make writing effortless. The colors all feel natural and calming. I'm happy with all 3 color choices: a sophisticated teal, a classic forest green, and a vibrant purple-pink, all with smooth flow and beautiful presence on the page. These are easy to recommend if you enjoy expressive colors that still behave well for everyday use.

The Pilot Iroshizuku Yama-Budo ink is absolutely stunning. The color is a rich purple-red that really stands out on the page without being too bold. It flows smoothly and consistently, making writing feel effortless . I also appreciate the high-quality glass bottle it feels premium and looks great on my desk. A beautiful ink!

I'm a long time user of fountain pens and as many various ink manufacturers; This Pilot set of inks is extraordinary, in flow, color except the cost.In the end one pays double per ml, but it is well worth it.

Great quality ink and a great magenta color. Writing with this ink stands out.

Love it! Great color and usability for my fountain pens. I have multiple TWSBI 580 AL's and this ink works great in them.

I have bought 6 colors so far in this series of fountain pens inks by Pilot, all the pinks, to purples and a dark green. I have to admit I got them to paint with at first due to the glorious colors. I also have a large selection of dip pen nibs, and antique fountain pens to try them with on various papers. I am trying them in various coloring books, trying to find the publisher of those books with the best paper for using these inks. The glass bottles they come in are beautiful, the ink is smooth and I am enjoying the explorations. Highly recommend to anyone who enjoys good quality and unusual colors of calligraphy inks!

Beautiful colors but bleed and writing both sides of the paper will be bothersome

My favorite ink!

J'adore les encres iroshizuku. Cette yama budo rend très bien sur du papier de qualité et avec un capless encore mieux

Beautiful deep red. Bordeaux is a good description. I love these inks. This is my fourth purchase from this range. Overnight delivery before 8am - fantastic. Thank you 🙏

Atramenty Pilot iroshizuku są chyba najbardziej polecanymi atramentami w internecie i nie bez powodu. Kolor jest wyjątkowy i sprawdzi się nawet w najbardziej suchym piórze 😉

Una maravilla de tinta, fluye sin problema alguno, luce en casi todo tipo de papel y el tiempo de secado es razonable. Obviamente, mientras uses papel de mejor calidad, más lucirá el color. ¡Para impresionar con una buena letra!

Presented in best Japanese tradition, this product is extremely well crafted chemically to be smooth and flowing from nib. A pleasure to use and has become a staple signature ink.
