This ink pairs a deep, rich pinky-red base, as bold as the spider's markings, with a colour-shifting shimmer that moves between blue, purple, and mauve to mimic that iridescent display. February 2025.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTry 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVolume: 4ml glass sample vial\u003cbr\u003eSeries: Van Dieman's 2025 Ink of the Month\u003cbr\u003eBase colour: Deep rich pinky-red\u003cbr\u003eShimmer: Colour-shifting blue, purple and mauve shimmer\u003cbr\u003eDye-based, water-based ink\u003cbr\u003eDecanted in-house from a 15ml bottle in the Van Dieman's 2025 Boxed Collection\u003cbr\u003eHandmade in Launceston, Tasmania, Australia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA perfect way to build a swatch library or fill an ink-sample flight.
