One of the deepest, most vivid reds in the Van Dieman's catalogue.
Fire Coral isn't a true coral at all. It's a hydrozoan, armed with nematocysts capable of delivering a burning sting, and its appearance is deceptive: dark, brooding, quietly luminous beneath the waterline. The ink captures that tension. Dense, saturated, and intentional, it's achieved with a single specialised dye pushed to its structural limit, settling into a morose crimson with remarkable depth that pools toward near-black.
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.
Volume: 4ml glass sample vial
Series: Van Dieman's Underwater
Base colour: Uncompromising dark red
Dye-based, water-based ink
Decanted in-house from a full 40ml bottle
Handmade in Launceston, Tasmania, Australia
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.
