Just recently the German company Octopus Concept GmbH in Dresden started to offer inks for fountain pens besides their selection of printing inks.
"What started out as a good product is now becoming a passion of mine." That's what their chemist Dr. Kai-Oliver Schäfer said when he was developing this high-quality ink. "It's no longer about writing something beautiful - it's about beauty itself!"
The parameters he used to assess the quality go beyond colour and saturation. With every lab-scale batch and every writing test, his requirements regarding shades, a low degree of fraying, optimum drying time, writing and smooth gliding increased.Therefore, we can wholeheartedly recommend our Octopus Fluids writing ink to anyone who loves writing with a fountain pen. You can choose from nine different colours - discover just how beautiful writing by hand can be!
10 different ink colors are available in standard 30 ml and 250 ml bottles and can be ordered directly from the manufacturer's web-site. Their web-site also offers some interesting bits on the history of ink in German language.
