Beautiful but requires good paper

The color is unique and delicate, exactly as described. However, because it is so light, it ghosts heavily on standard notebook paper. I recommend using Tomoe River or similar thin, ink-resistant paper to see its true beauty.

Subtle elegance

This ink captures the feeling of fresh snow perfectly. It is not just grey; there is a complexity to the tone that changes depending on the nib size. With a broad nib, the shading is dramatic and lovely.

Great first specialty ink

I was nervous trying a specialized Japanese ink, but this was easy to load and clean. The color is softer than I expected from the photos online, which I actually prefer. Very happy with this purchase.

Too faint for everyday use

While aesthetically pleasing, this ink is simply too light for my daily note-taking. It becomes hard to read under certain lighting conditions. It is better suited for artistic projects or decorative writing rather than functional notes.

My favorite Shikiori ink

I own several colors from the Sixteen Nights series, but Snow Rabbit stands out. It flows smoothly through my Sailor fountain pen without skipping. The bottle design is also elegant and fits well on my desk.

A Winter Wonderland in a Bottle

Snow Rabbit is absolutely stunning. It's a very pale grey with subtle blue undertones that shimmer on high-quality paper. The shading is incredible, going from nearly white to a soft slate grey. Perfect for winter journaling.
