Lapis Lullabies - 20ml shimmer ink

Described as "Medium Blue, Champagne Shimmer, Red Sheen" this is a lovely rich deep dark blue ink in the book swatched on. Laugh at FWP "Explore the topsy-turvy world of...". Reminder, user beware, the "miniature glass globe with a widened neck to fit most pens" could easily be a messy expensive nightmare if not careful. To avoid this I put the bottle in small demi mug, or votive candle holder, and keep eye on wayward paws, as my environment real life far from risk free simple would like it to be. I invested in small glass bottles that use eyedropper to transfer ink to and use from, avoiding spills and contamination. I enjoy experimenting and drawing with FWP inks, dipping antique nibs, dip fountain pens, and brushes into and applying on ink wash, which can create subtle hue and shimmer. Although FWP inks have higher price point than some other wellknown quality inks, what better time to try than end of Year / New Year promotions. which at time of review inks still advertised buy 2 get 1 free, collect loyalty points, daily spin for more (sadly like website problematic, not working often although required 24hrs passed between spins), can stack with other promotions, offset the high minimum base plateau for free shipping with FWP, avoid the high shipping cost on smaller purchase which makes unrealistic - sadly can't just pickup since office address only community away. And if like, larger bottle better value. Luckily I invested in before price increase! Note if remove more than one of these bottles from boxes, it can be hard to identify which is which! Sadly FWP doesn't label these bottles with colour name, sometimes initials only on tiny round label (that could fall off) or none at all. Nice feature of many of FWP is the silicone round or stopper that keeps from leaking easily. Don't forget to put back in place first before put cap back! Packaged in fancy compact colourful box, that easy to store without lot of excess empty space like some FWP inks, weird size, or shape. Pleased FWP claims their inks at least are Made in Canada, hope that means all types and components sourced here. And that someday all their products and staff will be, making Canada strong, free and great again in all ways that important for wellbeing of nation, people, economy, future, sustainability, resilience, environmental impact, footprint, and returning Canada to lead producer of pens and inks once again.

Shimmery blue black

Lots of shimmer, and a bit of sheen. Quite a lovely ink. More of a blue black than I had expected, bought it at the same time as Stroke of Midnight and I don't see a lot of difference between them (more sheen than SoM, but otherwise essentially the same).

This ink is just stunning. At first glance on the page it's a gorgeous almost dark denim, but then the shimmer and the sheen come through as you move the page and it really elevates the color
