Diamine Shimmertastic Ink Bottle - Arctic Blue brings a cool, saturated blue with a refined shimmer to your fountain pen. The lively sparkle stays readable on the page, adding a tasteful glint to notes, journals, and correspondence without overpowering the text.
Craftsmanship & Color
Part of Diamine's Shimmertastic series, this water-based dye ink suspends ultra-fine pearlescent particles for a luminous finish. Gently invert or swirl the bottle before filling to disperse the shimmer evenly. On bright white paper the hue feels crisp and icy; on cream stock it softens to a warmer blue while the particles catch the light.
Writing Experience
Flow is characteristically smooth and easy-starting. Broader or wetter nibs reveal more sparkle and shading, while finer nibs keep the effect subtle. For best results, use fountain-pen-friendly paper and adopt a simple cleaning routine: flush pens periodically and before long pauses in use to keep the feed clear of particles.
