This turquoise blue fountain pen ink features added copper pearlescent shimmer. Shimmering inks work best with broader nibs on high quality paper to really see the shine. De Atramentis fountain pen inks are exclusively handmade in Germany by Dr. Franz-Josef Jansen, and come in a 45ml 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.

Beautiful ink for both writing and illustrating

Beautiful ink for both writing and illustrating. My favorite of all the pearlescent inks from De Atramentis.

My favorite ink

I buy a LOT of different inks and swap out colors often. Every time I rediscover this color, I am baffled how I don't have it in permanent rotation.Yeah, it clogs a bit but beauty comes with a little pain. Well worth it

Beautiful, but it clogs

This is a really nice color. However, it clogs up the feed and nib. So maybe I won't be buying this one again.

Very very cool ink

This ink has plenty to offer. The base blue color is great on its own and with copper glints intermittently laying in is a fantastic accent. The negatives- I have to swirl my pen about every other sentence to keep the copper suspended and evenIf not you'll get one rush of copper , really heavy and almost illegible because it's too reflective than you'll get a paler flat blue. When ink is properly mixed even the base blue is darker. I can not recommend this ink for converters. This ink routinely burps out, both from the nib and out the back of the converter in the barrel. It's a fantastic stain filled mess. These are not issues I have with inks that don't contain flecks so I believe that to be the cause.

Second-favorite blue shimmer ink

This is my second-favorite ink match for my Lamy Safari in Aquamarine. At first, the shimmer came out more of a silver color. This ink dries copper, though. I do not have flow issues with my Safari medium nib. The ink looks great on a variety of paper�Rhodia, Leuchtturm, Clairefontaine, Tomoe River, and even Fabriano Eco-Qua!

What a color! Like writing with magic

This ink is beautiful. Simply gorgeous. One of the many things I love about writing with a fountain pen is the unique colors available. Keep in mind that this bottle needs to be shaken quite vigorously to disperse the metallic particles before filling your pen, and that your first words/sentences will be more shiny than later writing. At least, that's my experience. That said, this ink is utterly magical.

My favorite Blue so far...

The blue is beautiful. When the glitter is mixed just right it looks amazing on good paper. My only gripe is that it needs to sit for a very long time before it doesn't smear on the glossy thank you cards I use for work.

Very cool color

I like this ink. Very unique color. The only downside is that you have to really shake the ink to mix the copper bits, and fill your pen almost immediately. My first fill missed out on the copper bits because I didn't start filling in time. But really that's more user-error than anything. Otherwise, very very satisfied.

Beautiful

Make sure, as the shimmering video says, that your pen writes wet. This one has a lot of variation of color, but won't work well with an extra-fine tip.

Great shimmering ink

This ink is lovely on Tomoe River paper. I've only had it in my flex noodlers neponset but gorgeous no issues yet with clogging.

Cyan Blue-Copper is excellent!

This ink flows well with the shimmer being clear and the sheen being a touch muted. It is unclear why this ink is so underrated as the copper shimmer on the blue ink is very eye-catching. Not your ordinary gold or silver shimmer, though they are quite nice too. There appears to be be a touch of red sheen, but it is hard to distinguish against the copper shimmer. There may be none and my eyes are playing tricks on me. Either way, still very nice.Water resistance was not tested.Shading was not tested.Dry time was relatively quick, though it is presently quite warm here.Very happy with this ink purchase.

Awesome Shimmering Ink

Awesome shimmering ink with a deep blue color. With finer nibs the color shows up with an aqua marine appearance and little to no shimmer.

De Atramentis Pearlescent Ink

This ink is just amazing. The right amount of shimmer for me out of a fine nib Jowo in a Retro 51 Tornado. A great color combination, and no clogging to date.

Beautiful Ink

As a newbie to the fountain pen community this is my 8th purchase of ink and the first pearlescent type. I love the color and it gets better once it dries down. The only issue is remembering to shake the pen before writing.

Brilliant Ink

This ink is positively amazing. It flows very nicely through my Kaweco Sport with a 1.9mm Calligraphy Nib. The iridescent flake is present throughout, which just looks incredibly beautiful on just about any kind of paper. Thabk you for carrying this in stock.

Almost looks like painting with Gold

This is only a review for the sample, I'll add/delete after I grab the full bottle. This is beautiful ink, it's a great Cyan and a sparkling copper that almost looks gold. It's not stingy on the sparkles either. From the sample, even after shaking, it lays down the copper/gold color must more so than in the product pictures. It's dazzling, fancy even. Clearly it's subjective, but if you like Cyan, and you like a shimmer that will make a unicorn smile, the De Atramentis pearlescent series is just for you.

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.
