Teranishi Guitar Taisho Roman Haikara Fountain Pen Ink - Modern Red. Modern Red is a bright red that reminds us of red wine and popular lipstick shades of the Taisho era. The import of red wine to Japan became popular starting in the early 1900s, as did the use of lipstick as a representation of female empowerment.
The Guitar Tasho Roman Haikara line of fountain pen ink from Teranishi reflects a time of high fashion and elegance from the Taisho era in Japan. In fact, haikara or "high collar" became popularized as a term to describe "stylish, new, fresh or fashionable" trends and culture that began entering Japan from Europe and America between 1912 and 1926. These vibrant inks were developed to reflect this era in history.
