Sailor Manyo Ink Bottle (Assorted - 20 ML) 13-4510-003 (Limited Edition)
Immerse yourself in a poetic palette: the Manyo 20?mL Assorted Set is a limited?edition collection from Sailor that draws inspiration from Man’y?sh? (the “Collection of Ten Thousand Leaves”) — Japan’s revered anthology of classical poetry.
This special set (code 13?4510?003) includes four distinct inks — Yomogi, Kikyou, Yamabuki, and Ume — each captured in a 20?mL glass bottle and packaged in an elegant presentation box.
Because it is part of a limited release, these bottles are crafted for collectors, fountain?pen enthusiasts, and ink lovers who wish to explore a tonal spectrum steeped in nature, history, and subtle nuance.
Color & Character
Each of the four colors in the set evokes a particular floral or seasonal motif from Japanese poetry:
-
Yomogi: A calm, muted green reminiscent of mugwort or wild grasses.
-
Kikyou: A delicate blue?violet, capturing the spirit of bellflowers.
-
Yamabuki: A warm golden yellow, bright and luminous.
-
Ume: A soft yet elegant pink, echoing plum blossoms.
These inks are designed to show shading and sheening behavior depending on paper and writing conditions — their character can shift with nib width, ink flow, and paper absorbency.
Descriptions note that these inks “offer exceptional shading and sheening properties, changing their appearance depending on the paper used.”

Performance & Use
-
Flow & Compatibility: The inks are formulated to be safe for all fountain pens.
-
Shading & Sheen: Because of their dual?shading nature, the inks may display variations in hue when ink pools or spreads.
-
Paper Sensitivity: The final appearance is strongly impacted by paper quality — smoother, less absorbent papers may reveal more sheen or subtle shifts.
-
Drying & Legibility: Some users of Manyo inks note that they run “quite dry” in certain pens, and may require wetter pens or slight modifications to flow (e.g. adding a drop of lubricant) for smoother writing.
Narrative & Inspiration
This Manyo set is more than merely a collection of colors — it is a tribute to Japan’s poetic and floral heritage. Sailor has selected 8 (in total across multiple sets) Manyo shades that are particularly expressive in shade and nuance.
Each bottle’s color is tied to a flower or natural motif found in the Many?sh?, bridging visual art with literary mythology.
The limited nature of this release emphasizes its collectible appeal: once the stock is gone, reproductions may not be available in the 20?mL edition.

Behavior, Use & Considerations
-
As a dye?based ink, the Manyo inks are generally considered fountain pen safe (i.e. less risk of clogging compared to pigment inks) when used properly.
-
Because these inks are especially praised for shading and sheen, the choice of paper, nib width, ink flow rate, and writing pressure can all significantly affect the final look.
-
Some user reports (across the Manyo line) note that certain Manyo inks can be somewhat “dry” in flow in some pens, requiring wetter pens or minor adjustment (e.g. adding a tiny amount of lubricant or using a wetter feed) for best performance.
-
Because of shading / sheening behavior, in high-ink-pool areas the inks may reveal deeper or secondary tones not obvious in light strokes.
-
It’s beneficial to test on multiple paper types to see how shading / sheen manifests.
