The name Haikara is derived from the English High Collar, a word coined around the turn-of-the-century in Japan to describe the fashion of dressing in Western clothes. While originally somewhat derogatory, the term has evolved now into a far more nostalgic term of endearment. Nostalgia is something Teranishi has by the bucketload.

Antique Black truly lives up to its name. With a hint of brown, Teranishi Antique Black is a great option if you're on the hunt for a black ink that isn't just old boring black.

These dye-based inks come in 40ml bottles with great vintage style.
