Watch your handwriting transform into timeless archival art with Platinum Classic Fountain Pen Ink in Forest Black. Crafted in Japan by Platinum Pen Co., Ltd.—the sole Japanese manufacturer preserving traditional iron gall ink-making techniques—this specialty bottled ink brings an intriguing, color-shifting dynamic to every line you write.
Upon touching the page, Forest Black appears as a lush, vibrant botanical green. As the ink reacts with oxygen in the air, it undergoes a stunning oxidation process, darkening before your eyes into a moody, deep forest-black hue. This traditional formulation produces dramatic shading variance that accentuates the line variation and character of fine, medium, and broad fountain pen nibs. Once cured, the iron gall ink bonds with the paper fibers to provide remarkable water resistance and archival permanence, ensuring your journals, letters, and important records remain crisp for decades.
Housed in a square 60 ml glass bottle designed for stability, each bottle includes an internal ink reservoir insert to facilitate easy dipping and maximum filling—even when ink levels run low.
Maintenance Tip: To keep your fountain pen performing at its best, regular cleaning and flushing every 4–6 weeks is recommended when using traditional iron gall inks.
