2ml sample of Ferris Wheel Press Wonderland in Coral fountain pen ink, an orange-coral color with added silver shimmer. Wonderland in Coral is part of the Bookshoppe collection.

Ferris Wheel Press fountain pen inks are available in many distinct colors that spur excitement, creativity, and a feeling of absolute joy every time you write. The water-based inks are suitable for all fountain pens, and are made with the highest quality dyes and resins, featuring rich and saturated tones.

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. Shimmering inks work best with broader nibs on high quality paper to really see the shine.

I love this color. When it is wet I almost looks watered down or that it doesn't write well but when it's dry it is so pretty.

Just what I had hoped!

This is exactly as shown, little to no pink but a beautiful, soft coral or apricot. Wish my Kaweco Sport Iridescent were wetter to get more ink on the page! This is not high contrast ink on white paper, but a soft, gentle look. It's quick to dry, what's not to like? I'll be ordering a full bottle.

Beautiful ink

Love it, it's a beautiful ink with a njce shine and sheen. I got the 2 bottles of the sample size and it's enough to fill my TWSBI Go pen. Love the shimmer and the sheen. It feels very feminine and I feel inspired when I write with it.

Light and lovely

Used in Lamy 1.9 stub on various papers. A low contrast coral color. A bit too light for my desires. Has great shimmer. I didn't experience shading but it is an ink that I could layer to get darker variations. It is a lovely color with sparkle but for writing it isn't for me. However, I would try other inks from this brand and I will definitely buy from this online store again.

Wonderland is Coral is a 'clear' (thin?) ink that dries to be a lovely, Light coral. You will like it!

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

How do I fill my fountain pen from an ink sample vial? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

The technique depends on the fountain pen's filling mechanism.

How much writing can I really do with 2ml? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

We find that usually you can get 2 good fills for a typical converter with our ink samples, or one good fill with a large capacity piston-filling pen.

How much writing you can do depends on you more than anything else. It mostly depends on how big or small you write, and the nib size you’re using. We recommend experimenting with different nib sizes to find what works best for you.
