de atramentis

document blue

De Atramentis Document Blue is a pigment-based, permanent blue ink known for exceptional water resistance, lightfastness, and resistance to tampering. It flows very wet and dries rapidly, making it well suited to documents, archival writing, and ink-and-wash work, though its low shading and tendency to spread or feather favor finer, drier pens and reliable paper.
