Diamine shimmering ink fountain pen ‘Shimmering Seas’, 50 ml

Difficult to see on paper unless you're looking for it but it's cute.

this is a beautiful ink which is lovely and shimmery. i used it in a fine nib that writes dry and I kept having to shake the pen to keep the ink flowing. had i realised it will probably be better in a broader nibbed pen with a wetter ink flow or a good old fashioned dip pen. it will be lovely for illuminated lettering and would add a lovely effect if used as a drawing ink or with a paint brush. i have given 5 stars because I cannot fault the ink. inside the box there is a guide sheet that if i had read it before using the ink i would have used a pen more suited to the ink

The density/flow isn't the best on my medium nib pen, so the shimmer isn't consistent. I don't particularly mind it that much though, and it's still very pretty on the page. Enjoying it.

Love this ink! The shimmering effect is a little more subtle than I was expecting as my fountain pen has a fine nib, but I adore writing with it! Just always take care to REALLY shake the bottle well before you fill your pen - the gold flecks settle at the bottle of the bottle. I'm now tempted to try some of the other brighter colours

This is a lovely richly coloured ink that shades beautifully. Shimmering is apparent when dried. Ideal if you like this type of ink.

Arrived 5 days before due date. Diamine Shimmertastic Fountain Pen Ink -Shimmering Seas.Excellent value for money. Wonderful quality of ink. Beautiful colour. Looks great when it's dry. You can see the golden shimmer. Just have to remember to shake up the bottle before filling the pen.

The ink itself is a really nice blue but nothing like the images even in a 1.5 wide stub nib. It can run dry and you have to constantly agitate the ink to keep it flowing. This ink is beautiful but might be better suited for brushes or dip pens.

Lovely but best with a broad nib.
