Nagasawa Kobe Monogatari Higashi Kawasaki Ink Bottle 50 ml

Nagasawa Kobe Monogatari Higashi Kawasaki is a fountain pen ink inspired by the maritime history and atmosphere of Kobe’s harbor. The Kobe Ink Monogatari collection was created by the historic Nagasawa Bungu Center, a renowned Japanese stationery store founded in 1882, with the idea of expressing the districts, landscapes, and unique character of Kobe through color.

The inks of the Kobe Monogatari series are developed by Nagasawa and produced in Japan, offering smooth writing, rich tones, and beautiful shading that enhance every stroke of the pen.

Higashi Kawasaki takes inspiration from the promenade of Kobe Harborland, where the historic Kobe Port Signal Station stands. Originally used to signal ships entering the harbor, the building has been carefully relocated and preserved and is now the oldest surviving signal station of Kobe Port.

Today the structure is loved by both citizens and visitors as a landmark of the harbor area, a popular photo spot, and a relaxing place overlooking the sea.

The color of this ink reflects the distinctive tone of the signal station itself: a grayish mint green that shines against the sea and sky of Kobe’s waterfront. The result is a fresh and elegant shade that gives writing a light and distinctive character.

Nagasawa Kobe Monogatari Higashi Kawasaki is a refined fountain pen ink, perfect for those who appreciate light green tones and want to bring the relaxed atmosphere of Kobe’s harbor to the page.
