The special feature of the 38 colours of water-based Write & Draw writing and drawing inks is that they are pigmented . In addition, they dry waterproof and smudge-proof . The inks meet the requirements of a document-fast ink (DIN ISO 12757-2 & DIN ISO 14145-2) and are particularly lightfast thanks to their pigments. This is a really important aspect for artists, as dye-based fountain pen inks or paints fade quickly. Moreover, they are our first inks whose ingredients are 100% vegan !

He then provided us with transparent fountain pens with expandable ink conductors and, parallel to our tests, intensively tested the writing and drawing inks for fountain pen functionality. The many suggestions of the writing instrument manufacturer were taken into account and fulfilled during development. Our Write & Draw Inks are the first pigmented inks that can be prescribed very well with fountain pens. Development process: The development was mainly carried out in fountain pens of the manufacturer Kaweco (nib F & M). We therefore particularly recommend its use in these fountain pens. Furthermore, many tests were made in Diplomat fountain pens. In addition, writing tests were carried out with glass and calligraphy nibs.
