Van Dieman's Birds Of A Feather - Blue Jay Crown 30ml Ink Bottle

Introducing Blue Jay Crown, from the Birds of a Feather collection of fountain pen inks by Van Dieman's Ink. This ink is a periwinkle blue color that pays tribute to the striking and majestic Blue Jay. With its distinctive crown of feathers, the Blue Jay is a well-known and beloved bird in North America.

Blue Jay Crown ink has a very light saturation, making it a delicate and subtle shade of blue. However, this ink has a surprising dual-tone effect that reveals a pink color when it separates on the page. The effect is striking and playful, adding an unexpected twist to your writing.

The shading effect of this ink is very noticeable, adding depth and texture to your writing. It's perfect for calligraphy or adding emphasis to certain words or letters. The wetness of this ink is medium dry, which means it dries relatively quickly on paper. We recommend pairing it with a pen that has a wetter flow to ensure that the ink flows smoothly onto the page. A broad nib would be perfect for showing off the shading and dual-tone effects of this ink.

Blue Jay Crown ink is a unique and delightful addition to any fountain pen collection. Its subtle periwinkle blue color and surprising dual-tone effect make it perfect for adding a touch of whimsy to your writing. Whether you're writing a letter, journaling, or simply jotting down notes, this ink is sure to bring a smile to your face. So pick up your pen and let the Blue Jay's charming nature inspire your writing.
