Set I :

Karari meaning: "Fresh like an endlessly clear sky. Karari describes a bright, cloudless day. With this blue in hand, a break in the clouds is never far away."

Kurun meaning: "Kurun depicts the dance of a vine’s curling tendrils. A green that captures both vitality and a sense of calm."

Po meaning: "A color tucked away in our hearts. Po is the way we blush when falling in love; the warmth of a face admired from afar."

Torori meaning: "A perfect omelette reveals its deliciously soft centre. Torori is the color of anticipation, describing a rich consistency overflowing with flavor."

Tototo meaning: "Tototo is the gentle melody of a special rosé poured in quiet company. A color to elevate everyday life or celebrate a special occasion."

Set II: 

Koton meaning: "The silence of the night is punctuated by koton, the sound of an ink bottle being placed on the desk. A colour for quiet contemplation."

Murkuri meaning: "Mukuri describes the state of awakening, like a bear emerging from hibernation to the warm red earth. The colour signals the arrival of a new season."

Soyo meaning: "Soyo is like a breath of fresh air. A colour that evokes the feeling of a pleasant breeze."

Toppuri meaning: "Look closely and you might see the stars in the night sky. Toppuri describes the comforting darkness that arrives after nightfall. A gentle color that inspires reflection." 

Zabun meaning: "Zabun is the sound of the deep, blue ocean. Listen for the lapping waves as the ink flows across the paper, awakening precious memories."
