Balaton-kék (Balaton-blue) - 2ml

Overview

Pennonia inks are entirely handmade in a small laboratory using high quality ingredients. Drawing inspiration from by personal life events, Hungarian language, tradition and even popular culture, Pennonia presents a collection that is ready to take you on a journey.

Also known as the Hungarian Sea, Lake Balaton is one of the most iconic geographical landmarks of Hungary. It is ingrained in our culture, our national identity and a destination that probably most Hungarians will visit at least in their lifetimes. With this in, I wanted to pay homage to our “sea” because it’s truly a gift we are lucky to have.

This ink is a part of a mini-series of shading inks, which work particularly well with brushes, brush pens and dip pens. They truly come to life when used in writing instruments from which the inks can gush onto paper. Of course they are also great for fountain pen sketches and even handwriting but the effect is more subdued thanks to the nature of these shading inks. One mantra that is good to keep in mind: the broader and wetter the nib, the better.
