Iron gall ink

The « queen » of inks, made in our shop according to traditional medieval recipes, based on oak gall extract and iron salts. It offers the particularity of being first grey at the trace, then darkening in the following minutes (intensity varies according to the ink load, the width of the line and especially the support: if it is acidic, or of neutral pH, the ink remains rather grey; if it is basic, it darkens more). Its exceptional finesse makes it recommended for all work requiring great precision (small modules, copperplate script). Bottle of 30 ml.
