Esterbrook Shimmer Aqua Ink – 50 ml Bottle
Like sunlight on the sea. Esterbrook Shimmer Aqua is a fresh aqua blue fountain pen ink with a subtle touch of turquoise, filled with soft gold shimmer particles that catch the light as you write. It is perfect for journaling, greeting cards, invitations, headings and any page that deserves a special touch. It belongs to the ink collection launched by Esterbrook in 2021, a brand that has been an American writing icon since 1858. The inks are made in Europe and tested for quality and flow.
Why you'll love it: it combines a cool, elegant blue with a delicate golden glow. The effect is refined rather than flashy, so it is ideal for creative writing and special occasions.

The perfect match for your Esterbrook pen

Tips for using shimmer ink
- Gently shake or rotate the bottle before filling so the shimmer particles are evenly distributed.
- Roll your pen gently from time to time while writing to keep the particles in suspension.
- Use a medium or broad nib to get the most sparkle on the page.
- Clean your pen more often than with standard inks, and don't leave it inked unused for long periods.
- Close the bottle tightly after use and store it away from direct sunlight.
