Sodapop - Raspberry
Starry Ink is one of the 713 brands in Inktend's built-in ink catalog.
Paper & pairing
Reds and pinks show the most dramatic shading of any color family — expect real variation between the edges and center of each letter. 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 Starry Ink
Starry Ink is a Chinese ink studio started in 2016 by five university students from the University of Shanghai for Science and Technology. It produces fountain pen inks in multiple themed series and styles, many offered with shimmer packets and optional aroma vials, and it also provides custom ink production.
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.
