Magical Drying Ink

I’m not a person that writes stuff down with pen and paper, but sometimes there’s a glimpse of tradidional writing tools that catches your eye and makes you want to toss away everything digital and lock yourself in a shed on the mountains to handwrite your life novel.

Yes, you’re actually watching ink dry here. But this is no ordinary ink, just look at how satisfying the color changes once it’s on the paper. This is the ink for expressing true penmanship skills.

Each 50ml bottle is hand dipped in sealing wax with a stamped “1670” seal on the front and individually packaged in a collector edition box.
