Taccia Ukiyo-e Utamaro-Umemurasaki (Plum Purple) Ink

Taccia Ukiyo-e Utamaro-Umemurasaki (Plum Purple) Ink is a pink-purple fountain pen ink - easily the most pinkish of all the Taccia Ukiyo-e inks, but dark and purple enough to be easily readable no matter the paper you're writing on.

This ink is dye-based, which means it's easy to clean out of your pens but not water resistant.

About the Taccia Ukiyo-e Ink Collection

Taccia is proud to introduce the Ukiyo-e Ink Series, inspired by the rich color palettes of Edo-period (17th century) Japanese woodblock prints. Ukiyo-e captured the everyday life, tastes, and amusements of its time, using nuanced hues that are difficult to describe with a single word. Our Ukiyo-e inks faithfully reinterpret these delicate tones to elevate your writing and drawing experience with fountain pens.

The collection is released in four artist-themed sets—Hokusai, Sharaku, Hiroshige, and Utamaro—each reflecting the distinctive aesthetics of its namesake. Every ink is formulated with safe, high-quality raw materials, with colors developed under the guidance of a Japanese color consultant. The series was created by stationery experts and is manufactured in our own facilities to ensure consistent performance and reliability.
