Alchemy Raven Blue Fountain Pen Ink – 45 ml

Raven Blue fountain pen ink is named after the plumage of a raven: a deep, saturated blue-black that reads as serious and dependable. In the right light and on the right paper, a faint copper sheen appears around the edges of heavier strokes.

To set expectations honestly: this is a very dark ink. In a wet, wide nib it can look close to black, and the blue only comes through in drier pens or when the ink is laid down thinly. Writers who like a blue-black with real saturation will find that a strength rather than a drawback.

Best Uses

It suits signatures, office documents, exam answers, formal letters and anyone who wants the authority of black with a hint of colour. Flex and broad nibs reveal the most character, with darker pools and lighter edges along each stroke.

Filling and Care

The ink is formulated to be gentle on nibs and works in fountain pens and dip pens. Fill with a converter or piston, and clean the pen with water every few weeks so dark pigments do not dry in the feed. Keep the cork base under the bottle when filling to avoid tipping the glass.
