Umber [Haldan 1986] is a complex, earthy hue that captures the richness of soil and the vitality of young leaves. Inspired by the Bukidnon creation myth, in which three divine beings crafted the world and named it Haldan ta Paraiso—meaning Garden of Paradise—this shade reflects the verdant beauty of nature and the sacredness of the earth. The story originates from The Bukidnon Batbatnon and Pamuhat: A Socio-Literacy Study, Vol II Part I, written by Carmen Ching Unabia and first published in 1986. This color pays homage to a cultural legacy where creation and nature are deeply intertwined.
This ink features a burnt sienna base with an ivy-green sheen, accented by a mixed-metallic shimmer that catches the light with flashes of blue and copper.
