How to use

Ensure your pen or dip nib is clean before filling to avoid contamination. For fountain pens with converters or piston fillers, fill according to the pen manufacturer’s instructions by immersing the nib and drawing ink into the reservoir. For cartridge converters, use the converter mechanism to draw ink from the bottle. For dip pens, dip the nib into the ink to an appropriate depth and remove excess by lightly tapping or wiping. Close the glass bottle tightly after use and store it upright in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Usage recommendations

Test the pink ink on a scrap of the paper you plan to use to check bleed-through, drying time and colour appearance. Clean pen nibs and feed regularly when using coloured inks to maintain reliable flow and prevent clogging. Keep the bottle tightly sealed when not in use to preserve colour and prevent evaporation.
