2ml sample of DiamineSpiced Apple red shimmering fountain pen ink, in a labeled plastic vial.

Initially launched as part of the 2022 Diamine InkVent calendar and now a part of the regular DiamineGreen Edition collection, thisred chameleon fountain pen ink features added gold shimmer.

Chameleon ink is a type of shimmer ink. The shimmer effect is much brighter than standard and when the ink is applied to the page the color changes depending on the angle of the light. This ink works best with broader nibs on high quality paper to really see the shine.

Due to the amount of particulate in this ink used to achieve the sparking look, you may experience restricted ink flow in some of your pens. We recommend shaking the ink thoroughly before filling and gently rolling the pen in your hands often to keep the shimmer effect consistent. This will also help prevent clogging. You will also want to be diligent about cleaning and maintaining your pen when using this ink.
