38ml glass bottle of Ferris Wheel Press Oyster Hour fountain pen ink, a creamy oyster brown. It is creamy, warming, and subdued. 

We celebrate the spirit of the collector with the Finer Things Collection -- three new rich and heartwarming colours inspired by the romance of antiques and cherished ephemera. As representative capsules of time and culture, we are inspired by the fascination of objects before our time. We capture the feeling of reminiscence and finding the perfect addition to a prized collection through our newest curated compilation of fine fountain pen ink.

With a deep appreciation for curation and the quest to find the perfect addition, prized treasure, or crowning jewel. We invite you to cherish every word, while recording your memories, thoughts and sincerest feelings.

Ferris Wheel Press fountain pen inks are available in many distinct colors that spur excitement, creativity, and a feeling of absolute joy every time you write. The water-based inks are suitable for all fountain pens, and are made with the highest quality dyes and resins, featuring rich and saturated tones.

The instantly recognizable shape of the 38ml glass bottle is inspired by the pocket watch, with its stunning jewelry-inspired silhouette. It is completed with its signature hexagonal brass cap, and an air-tight secure cap locking mechanism to prevent leaks. Each bottle features custom (and varying) artwork, and a label on the back to indicate the ink color.

The bottle size measures 67mm wide x 75mm tall x 25mm deep.

A soft, lovely, neutral brown

If you are looking for a muted vibe, this is it. A neutral, mid to low vibrant taupe. It is a beautiful shader and color and is legible on white Stayology paper where shading is beautiful. On cream Leuchtturm paper, it is the same tone, slightly darker due to the paper absorption, and less shading. I like it but not enough to get a whole bottle unless I intend to use it in other applications such as painting and dual inkwork.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which pens can accept this ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Any of these fountain pens will work with bottled ink. Typically, as long as the pen can be filled with a converter, has a built-in filling mechanism like a piston, or can be eyedropper-filled, it can accept bottled ink. You can also refill an empty ink cartridge from bottled ink using an ink syringe.

Is shimmering ink safe to use in fountain pens? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Yes! Shimmering ink (a fountain pen ink that has small particles of glitter mixed in) is a great way to add some flare to your writing. We have found that a larger nib will showcase more shimmering particles while writing, but you can use any nib size with shimmering ink. While it is safe to use in fountain pens, it may require a little extra maintenance.

Due to the amount of particulate in this ink used to achieve the sparking look, you may experience restricted ink flow in some of your pens, especially with finer nibs.

We recommend shaking the ink thoroughly before filling, and gently rolling the pen in your hands often to keep the shimmer effect consistent. This will also help prevent clogging.

You will also want to be diligent about regularly cleaning and maintaining your pen when using this ink.
