Wearingeul For Whom the Bell Tolls Fountain Pen Ink

For Whom the Bell Tolls is a 30ml bottled fountain pen ink from Wearingeul's World Literature collection, and above all it is a red-sheening ink. A strong dark red sheen dominates the line; the dark bluish green base appears only along the edges of the stroke. The box and bottle label are teal, but on the page this ink reads red; expect the sheen, not the label color, to define your writing.

In a wet line the sheen can cover the stroke almost entirely, leaving the green barely visible. The result suits Hemingway's Spanish Civil War novel: red across the surface, the landscape visible only at the margins. This is one of the moodiest inks Wearingeul has made, and a wet nib on smooth paper is where it earns its keep.
