50ml Bottle

Part of Diamine’s Shimmertastic collection, this Golden Oasis bright green fountain pen ink features added gold shimmer. Works best with broader nibs on high quality paper to really see the shine. Comes in a 50ml glass bottle.

Due to the amount of particulate in this ink used to achieve the sparking look, you may experience restricted ink flow in some of your pens. We recommend shaking the ink thoroughly before filling and gently rolling the pen in your hands often to keep the shimmer effect consistent. This will also help prevent clogging. You will also want to be diligent about cleaning and maintaining your pen when using this ink.

Bright Color, Lovely Sheen

I'm new to fountain pens and inks, so this was among my first order; I wanted something bright and fun for journaling. Golden Oasis is a bright yellow-/grass-green with golden shimmer. The glass bottle is filled almost to the top. I've got it in my new TWSBI Eco with M nib. The line width appears to show the shimmer well. Photo examples are on mixed media paper and tea-stained copy paper.

Great color

I recieved this ink as a sample and I loved the color so much I couldn't wait to try, but I was never able to get it to work for me. Often came out very light and I had to write very slow to get a good saturation of ink on the page. Could be me and and the pens I used it with (pilot kakuno fountain pen)

beautiful, nuanced green

This ink is gorgeous. The shimmer particles do settle out pretty quickly, so I'd use it in a converter, where you can shake/roll it frequently, rather than a dip pen. However, without the shimmer particles the underlying green is also gorgeous and shades quite nicely.

Apple Green and Shimmery!

I got this ink in a sample and was wowed by it. Perfect color for Spring. I wrote a few paragraphs and the shimmer was beautiful throughout. I knew I would need a whole bottle of this, and am pleased with my purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which pens can accept this ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Any of these fountain pens will work with bottled ink. Typically, as long as the pen can be filled with a converter, has a built-in filling mechanism like a piston, or can be eyedropper-filled, it can accept bottled ink. You can also refill an empty ink cartridge from bottled ink using an ink syringe.

Is shimmering ink safe to use in fountain pens? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Yes! Shimmering ink (a fountain pen ink that has small particles of glitter mixed in) is a great way to add some flare to your writing. We have found that a larger nib will showcase more shimmering particles while writing, but you can use any nib size with shimmering ink. While it is safe to use in fountain pens, it may require a little extra maintenance.

Due to the amount of particulate in this ink used to achieve the sparking look, you may experience restricted ink flow in some of your pens, especially with finer nibs.

We recommend shaking the ink thoroughly before filling, and gently rolling the pen in your hands often to keep the shimmer effect consistent. This will also help prevent clogging.

You will also want to be diligent about regularly cleaning and maintaining your pen when using this ink.
