Octopus Fluids inks are made in Germany. With their unique two-tone effect and metallic sheen overlay, each stroke will be a visual symphony on smooth, non-absorbent paper. Inspired by mythical creatures, these inks add a touch of magic to your writing.

The fountain pen inks in this collection are water-based dye-based inks. The special feature of these inks is the sheen effect, which makes writing shine in a colour different from the base colour. This is made possible by a very high dye content.

Instructions for use:

• Octopus Sheen inks should be shaken before use, as the high dye saturation will cause solids to settle to the bottom of the bottle over time. 
  
• Sheen inks generally take longer to dry than conventional dye inks and will smudge more easily on contact with wet hands, even when completely dry. In developing Octopus Fluids sheen inks, we have paid particular attention to optimising these parameters to achieve the shortest possible drying time and to reduce smudging to a minimum.
  
• The ink can be left in the pen for longer, and only the nib needs moistening after a long period of non-use. There is no need to worry about the ink drying out.
