Kuretake - Art Nouveau Color Ink
Kuretake is established in 1902 during the flourishing "Art Nouveau" beauty movement. This ink series draws inspiration from color lithographs that were prevalent as popular art during that era. Kuretake adopted the six new popular colors of the time and put it into the bottle for glass pen and fountain pen users to enjoy.
