Vinta Inks, crafted in the Philippines, celebrate the nation’s vibrant culture and history through thoughtfully named collections and expertly formulated inks. Each blend is created using high quality ingredients, reflecting both artistry and storytelling in every bottle.

Archives from the Metro is a tribute to the quiet, fleeting stories of city life, from familiar streets to passing moments that linger in memory. Inspired by the textures, rhythm, and pulse of Manila’s urban landscape, each ink in this 15ml collection captures a fragment of the metro as both a place and an experience. Together, they form a living archive, deeply personal yet universally familiar, inviting you to document your own story, one line at a time.

Electric Cyan draws inspiration from 1982 Avenida Rizal, when the district pulsed with the vibrant energy of Manila’s Electric 80s. Bathed in neon light, Avenida stood at the intersection of nostalgia and progress, where classic cinema houses gave way to a new wave of modern retail and “Space Age” optimism. This ink reflects the glow of illuminated marquees, vintage airline posters, and storefronts that shimmered in electric blue hues during a fleeting moment before the skyline was forever changed.

Bright and dynamic, this high energy cyan shifts between sky blue and turquoise tones, capturing the crisp brilliance of neon against the night. Its vivid character brings a sense of movement and optimism to the page, transforming each line into a reflection of a city alive with light and possibility.

Vinta stands firm in the belief that education holds the key to reducing poverty. With every bottle purchased, a portion is donated to support educational initiatives in the Philippines, helping build a brighter future, one story at a time.
