Why write in brown?
Brown ink feels personal and warm. It recalls old letters and leather-bound journals, and it is gentler on the eyes than black for long writing sessions. Many fountain pen users keep a brown ink for letters, diaries and creative work.
Easy to live with
Being carbon-free and dye-based, this ink is low maintenance. It will not leave carbon deposits in your pen, flows smoothly from steel and gold nibs, and cleans out with plain water.
Perfect for
- Personal letters on cream or ivory paper
- Travel and memory journals
- Sketching portraits and landscapes
An affordable way to try brown
If you have never used a brown ink, this 60ml bottle is an inexpensive way to discover whether it suits you.
