NAGI: Reflecting the delicate blue-purple flowers that grow in paddy fields in late summer, this ink carries the essence of serene late-summer evenings.
This unique collection, inspired by foods from the Heian period as described in the Manyoshu, offers vibrant and evocative colors that celebrate Japanese culture and history. Manyoshu, which translates to “Collection of Ten Thousand Leaves,” is the oldest and most revered anthology of Japan’s poetic compilations. Over a period of four centuries, 4516 poems were written by every class of person ranging from Emperors to merchants and farmers. “Manyo” is an abbreviation of “Manyoshu” and its meaning indicates people of all ranks.
