Diamine Shimmertastic Ink Bottle - Blue Lightning brings a lively blue hue to the page with a sparkling finish that catches the light. The shimmer adds festive nuance to everyday notes, headers, and creative lettering, while the base color remains crisp and readable on quality paper.
Writing Experience
This shimmering fountain pen ink lays down a smooth, saturated line that reveals a gleam as it dries. Under angled light, the suspended particles create a dynamic highlight that enhances flourishes and broader strokes. For a bolder sparkle, pair it with wider nibs or wetter feeds; finer nibs will show a subtler effect.
Usage Tips
Gently agitate the bottle before filling to evenly distribute the shimmer. For best results, use fountain pen friendly paper to reduce feathering and show off the shine. Clean pens regularly when using shimmering inks, and consider cartridge converters or pens that are easy to flush. Dry times vary with paper and nib size.
