Bottled fountain pen ink for writing in your colour

Bottled fountain pen ink gives you the freedom to fill your own fountain pen and choose a colour that suits what you want to write. From a familiar everyday writing colour to a different shade for letters, notes or journaling, bottled ink makes it easy to vary your writing colour.

To use bottled ink, you need a fountain pen with a suitable filling system. Many fountain pens that normally use ink cartridges can be filled directly from an ink bottle with a compatible converter. Other fountain pens have a built-in filling system. Always check which system is suitable for your pen.

What should you consider when choosing?

• Colour — choose an ink colour that suits your handwriting, intended use or simply your personal preference
• Compatibility — check whether your fountain pen can be used with bottled ink and which filling system it requires
• Converter — with many cartridge fountain pens, a compatible converter allows you to use bottled ink
• Use — bottled ink is a good choice if you write regularly or enjoy choosing between different ink colours

With bottled ink and the right filling system, you have more freedom to choose how you fill your pen and which colour your words take on.

Frequently asked questions about bottled fountain pen ink

Can every fountain pen be filled with bottled ink?
No. The fountain pen needs a suitable filling system. Some fountain pens have one built in, while others can use a compatible converter.

What is the difference between ink cartridges and bottled ink?
An ink cartridge is inserted directly into a compatible fountain pen and replaced when empty. Bottled ink is used with a converter or another filling system that draws ink from the bottle into the pen.

Can I use different colours of fountain pen ink?
Yes. Make sure the ink is suitable for fountain pens and clean your pen when changing colours if you want to avoid mixing the new colour with traces of the previous ink.
