Kuretake Ultimate Zero Black Ink - 25g

A matte black with no reflectivity at all, which is the point. Where most blacks catch light at an angle, this one simply absorbs it, and the darks read as genuinely dark.

Dilute with water to open up a full range of greys from the same bottle.

From Kuretake, whose Meiji no Iro inks we already carry. Made for brush and dip pen work.
