Ghostly pale wings that glow under moonlight for only a few days.
The Luna Moth (Actias luna) lives just a few days as an adult, which makes every sighting rare, and it has long stood as a symbol of transformation and the ephemeral magic of nature. This ink builds on a soft, dusty green base that separates on high-quality papers such as Tomoe River, Rhodia, and Canson into a multichromatic display of blue, pink, brown, and grey, echoing the subtle shifts across the moth's luminous wings. A light dusting of colour-changing shimmer finishes it. March 2025.
Try before you commit to a full bottle. Each sample is hand-decanted into a 4ml glass vial with a screw-top cap and a labelled colour name, so you can test the shading, sheen, and flow in your own pens on your own paper first.
This is a shimmer ink. Shake gently before each fill, and use it only in fountain pens that can be easily disassembled for cleaning. Dip pens and brushes are always a safe bet.
Volume: 4ml glass sample vial
Series: Van Dieman's 2025 Ink of the Month
Base colour: Soft dusty green
Shimmer: Colour-changing shimmer
Dye-based, water-based ink
Decanted in-house from a 15ml bottle in the Van Dieman's 2025 Boxed Collection

A perfect way to build a swatch library or fill an ink-sample flight. Ideal for junk journaling, lettering, fountain pen collectors, and stationery lovers who want to explore Van Dieman's Tasmanian inks without committing to a full bottle.
