30ml Bottle

This glistening black 30ml glass bottle of Wearingeul Hades fountain pen ink has added frozen blue glitter. It's an ink inspired by the god Hades, who governs death, and it embodies restrained beauty with a deep black reminiscent of the underworld. 

Wearingeul inks are made in South Korea.

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.

Great Ink!

This is a great ink, quite lovely. The black is like a charcoal with blue shimmer that isn't overly sparkly. This goes great with my Visconti Mythos - Poseidon. (Plus in mythology Poseidon and Hades were brothers. So, it's a great match that way too!) Also to my surprise, it does have water resistance. I expect this ink to go into my regular rotation.

Such a Beautiful Ink!!

I was intrigued by this ink because I don't necessarily need a "work appropriate ink" but still prefer something dark and legible. This ink is the most beautiful improvement over "just" a black ink (if you know what I mean). There's a gorgeous blue sparkle where the ink pools and looking at my notes and brain dumps is mesmerizing.

Not sparkly enough

I really want to love this ink. When it is working right, the sparkles show up beautifully. Most of the time it is plain black ink. I think the issue is in when filling the pen. If I don't do it quickly enough the sparkles settle to the bottom of the bottle and all I get is black. The black is lovely, and it writes well. I just wish there was more of a variation when the letter I am writing is finished.

Sparkly Darkness

I really enjoy this ink, I put it in my Lamy AL-Star Petrol, and it's a lovely complement to the pen. The ink itself is a medium-dark black with shimmer that is mostly teal but can be purple from certain angles. It performs well and hasn't clogged my medium nib. I've used at least 3 converters of it so far and haven't had any issues.

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!
