Diamine Inkvent Year 3 Ink Bottle - Upon A Star brings the playful spirit of the Inkvent series to everyday writing. This chameleon fountain pen ink reveals shifting tones and a subtle, starry sparkle that changes with angle and light, adding visual interest to journals, notes, and creative lettering without sacrificing usability.
Formula & Design
Built on Diamine’s reliable water-based, dye formula, Upon A Star incorporates ultra-fine, color-shifting particles for a chameleon effect. The flow is designed for regular fountain pen use, while the suspended shimmer brightens highlights and downstrokes under good lighting. Gently agitate the bottle before filling to evenly distribute particles and maintain a consistent finish on the page.
Writing Experience
Broader or wetter nibs will showcase the chameleon shimmer most dramatically, while finer points yield a cleaner, more understated look. On smoother, less absorbent paper, the color-shift and sparkle appear more distinctly; more absorbent papers will soften the effect. As with any shimmering ink, plan for routine pen cleaning and avoid ultra-fine feeds if you prefer a low-maintenance setup.
