My daughter loves your company

My daughter loves your company. She raves over your inks your pens your stickers. Shawnee is a big fan. Everyone in our family has purchased something for Shawnee from your company. She lives now in NJ and I live in Florida. She has discovered a passion for fountain pens. She writes me letters calling out the pen she used and the ink or inks. Her enthusiasm for your company your pen and the inks you carry and the information that you post on UTube is contagious. I don't know if I'm too old to learn a new trick, but so that I could write her letters back, i purchased myself a great white shark for my birthday. I have to thank Sandy for her amazing care while packing my order!. I received a Very Pretty fountain pen sticker, a raspberry lollipop and free ink samples. It was so much fun opening my package and the extra care and free ink was very much appreciated. I haven't tried my pen yet because I immediately fell off my bike and am in a blue cast. My Shawnee sent me one of you stickers- a hamster with a fountain pen, a letter, and a paper lable to affix to my cast so that she could sign it. The letter and cast signature were written in sailor seiboku blue- which she says is one of her favorite blues, with a twsbi pen on paper - which i can't remember but my Mom bought it from you for Shawnee. Thank you for the joy that you give my Shawnee. I plan to watch you videos as soon as this cast comes off so that I can learn to fill, clean and write with my pen. I hope I do you justice. Thank you again for your wonderful company and your customer care.Sincerely,Melody

Seiboku - Favorite journaling ink

Great in a Pilot Falcon onto Japanese B5 Journal with 7- mm line spacing. After lots of experimenting, I could stay with this combo indefinitely.

My Favorite Pigmented Blue

This ink has to be my favorite pigmented blue! It has such a beautiful, almost stormy color that I find very unique. It's water resistance is very good (not as tough as De Atramentis' Document Ink, but great for general use)! The shading just adds to this inks beauty! This ink is also the easiest pigmented ink to clean I own. If you're looking for a pigmented ink that's easy on your pen and great on almost any paper you through at it, this is it!

FAQs about Bottled Ink

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.

What is shading, sheening, or shimmering ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Shading - A common (and often desired) result of a fountain pen ink pooling in certain parts of a letter when writing, so that the color and saturation of the ink appears different within a single letter or word. This characteristic cannot be achieved with ballpoint or rollerball pens and is a very appealing aspect of fountain pen use for those particularly drawn to all the pretty ink colors.

Sheen - Characteristic of a fountain pen ink where when ink pools another color can be seen on top of the ink, especially when looked at in different light angles using certain paper types. There is no way to guarantee an ink will sheen, but using a larger nib on a pen will help obtain sheening results in your writing.

Shimmering - Fountain pen ink that has small particles of glitter mixed in.

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

Yes! Shimmering ink 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 and shimmering ink. All the ink we sell is safe for use in fountain pens.

You can learn more in our blog: How to Write with Shimmering Ink.

My ink smells funny, is it safe to use? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Generally yes! Ink does not smell good- it usually has a chemical smell, along with other scents such as sulfur, rubber, chemicals or even paint. However, as long as you’re not seeing anything floating in the ink, it should be safe to use.

It’s cold and my ink froze; is it safe to use? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Yes, frozen ink will not hurt your pen (after it’s thawed of course!) The issue with ink freezing is primarily a concern because certain glass bottles could break as the water-based ink expands, and then you’d have a mess!

What is your return policy for bottled ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

We do not accept returns for ink that has been used. Otherwise, we accept returns on unused ink products for up to 30 days from purchase. You can read all our Return Policies here.

To initiate a return, please submit a request at the Return Portal. Our Customer Care team might reach out to you for more information.
