Taccia Ukiyo-e Sharaku-Koiame or Dark Yellow-Brown is another favorite, shading from a pale peach to a dark brown-red-orange. The shading shows beautifully in writing where it shifts suddenly from light to dark.
ink review : TACCIA Ukiyo-e – Syaraku – akasakura
Akasakura is a muted & understated brick-red, that is slightly pink-leaning. It’s a warm-red colour that looks quite nice on all types of paper.
