Paper & pairing

Purples sit at the boundary of professional and playful, one of the more personality-forward choices that still reads clearly on the page. This ink will behave predictably on most fountain-pen-friendly paper. Cheap, highly absorbent paper (standard copier paper) will dull any ink's saturation and can cause feathering or bleed-through with wetter nibs.

About Pennonia

Pennonia is a family-run ink maker founded in 2018 by Máté Bikfalvi, a former teacher, with ink production launching in early 2020. The inks are handmade entirely in-house and inspired by Hungarian culture, folklore, painters and places, while the family operation spans Hungary and the Hungarian-speaking region of Romania where his parents handle bottling and packaging. Pennonia also pioneered mixable liquid mica shimmer additives for fountain pen inks.

Storing and using the bottle

Bottled fountain pen ink has an effectively long shelf life when kept capped and out of direct sunlight: most inks remain usable for years. The main risk isn't the ink spoiling, it's a pen sitting inked and unused for weeks: that's what causes clogs, not the ink's age.
