Note: Some of these inks may feature shimmer particles, giving your writing a glistening sheen. Shake the bottle gently before use to ensure that the particles are evenly dispersed in the ink when you fill your pen. The ink is safe to use in any fountain pen, but as with all inks we recommend cleaning your pen regularly to avoid the risk of clogs.
