The colour
Red Ochre recalls the earth pigments painters have used for centuries, giving writing a warm, historic tone.
Best uses for Red Ochre
Red Ochre has an antique, artistic character that suits sketching, calligraphy practice and journals with a vintage feel.
How pigment ink differs
Most fountain pen inks are dyes that soak into the paper, but Red Ochre, like the rest of the Forever range, uses pigment particles that bind to the surface, which is what gives it its water resistance and long-lasting colour.

Is Red Ochre a shimmer ink?
No, Red Ochre has no shimmer; its durability comes from pigment.
