Get ready for an almost magical writing experience! The Octopus Fluids Sheen Ink collection offers you an assortment of magical inks with a very special two-colour effect. Each ink is inspired by a mythical creature, be it the fairytale unicorn, the mysterious Medusa, the enigmatic Djinn or the shy sea serpent. The colours of these inks are as magical as their names: Your typeface changes depending on the angle of view and paper used. A metallic shine in shades such as copper, gold or pink lays over the base colour of the ink, creating a visual symphony of colours. The sheen effect depends on your chosen paper and writing instrument, and you will experience different sheen effect thicknesses. The fascinating effect unfolds best on smooth, non-absorbent paper. Wherever your writing instrument emits plenty of ink, the luminous metallic sheen is created. To enjoy the sheen effect in all its glory, we recommend high-quality, non-absorbent writing paper and fountain pen with generous ink flow and a wide nib. The effect is particularly clear when writing with a glass nib or calligraphy fountain pen or use a refillable brush pen. To show only the base colour without sheen, use absorbent paper. The inks are water-soluble and dry slightly slower than conventional inks due to their composition. Only vegan ingredients are used in the production of Sheen inks. The Octopus Sheen Inks are an absolute must-have for creative writing lovers. Whether you are keeping a bullet journal, writing poems or making greeting cards. Enrich your writing experience and add a touch of sophistication to your personal messages and even everyday notes with the two-tone shine!
