Embrace the cool, quiet beauty of a winter landscape. The Pilot Iroshizuku Cartridge in Winter General (Fuyu-syogun) is a masterclass in understated elegance. Inspired by the personification of the harsh Siberian winter winds that sweep across Japan, this ink is a cool-toned, blue-leaning grey that mimics the color of a heavy, snow-filled sky. Unlike standard black or blue-black inks, Fuyu-syogun offers a soft, atmospheric aesthetic with exceptional shading, ranging from a pale misty silver to a deep, stoic slate.
Formulated with Pilot’s world-renowned water-based dye technology, this ink provides an incredibly smooth and consistent flow, ensuring a pleasant writing experience even in finer nib sizes. These proprietary cartridges are designed specifically for Pilot and Namiki fountain pens (such as the Kakuno, Metropolitan, Capless/Vanishing Point, and Custom series), providing a clean and convenient way to carry this poetic shade without the need for a bottle. Each of the 6 cartridges is imprinted with the colour name, allowing for easy identification. Whether you are drafting a minimalist journal entry or looking for a professional grey that stands out from the crowd, "Winter General" brings a sense of calm, focused strength to your page.
This versatile refill is compatible with a wide range of Pilot's fountain pens and desk pens, but not compatible with Custom 823 or Custom Heritage 92.
