Solid Horitomo Shinbashi

Solid Ink Horitomo Shinbashi – Traditional Blue for Japanese Tattooing

Solid Ink Horitomo Shinbashi, developed by master tattooer Horitomo, is a reserved yet vibrant blue inspired by the iconic kimono colors worn by geisha in Tokyo’s Shinbashi district during the late Meiji Era (1868-1912). This refined shade captures elegance and tradition, making it an ideal choice for Japanese tattooing and ukiyo-e inspired designs.

This versatile blue is perfect for kimono details, yurei (ghosts), and yokai (supernatural creatures), adding a unique, traditional aesthetic to your compositions. It provides a soft but striking contrast to warmer tones and blends beautifully with muted earth colors and darker blues.

With its smooth consistency and rich saturation, Shinbashi Blue applies effortlessly and heals with long-lasting vibrancy, ensuring authentic, time-honored results in traditional irezumi tattooing.

Made in the USA with vegan, cruelty-free ingredients, this professional-grade tattoo ink is trusted by artists worldwide for its premium quality and authenticity.
