fountain pen ink

Bottled writing liquid

Fountain pen ink is liquid ink formulated specifically for fountain pens—typically water-based and free-flowing enough to move through a pen's feed system without clogging.

It comes in bottles for filling pens directly or in disposable cartridges.

Fountain pen inks vary widely in color, saturation, and properties like water resistance or sheen: She collected vintage fountain pen inks in unusual colors.
