TWSBI 1791 ink – Royal Purple

This color is part of a 6 pack series we created from a book written in 1791 called “Dream of Red Chambers”. It’s one of China’s 4 great classical novels and we picked colors out of the buildings and descriptions within this book for this series of ink.  Color: Royal Purple Available in Sky Blue, Emerald Green, Royal Purple, Pink, Orange, Prairie Green, Forest Green, Tangerine, Grape, Navy, Crimson and 6 Pack Volume: 18ml Bottle Material: Frosted Glass Waterproof: No  More from TWSBI About TWSBI: TWSBI 三文堂 (San Wen Tong) is one of our earliest collection even before the store. TWSBI started as an OEM manufacturer for different western brands, and around 2009, they decided to start their own brand. With 50 years of experience in pen making, they took to fountain pen forums and gather users’ feedback. It was said that Pelican M800 was the model they were inspired. Most of their pens are transparent, so it’s really fun to see the ink color and it lasts for a very long time.The name 三文堂 (San Wen Tong) comes from the Hall of the Three Rare Treasures, created by Emperor Qianlong as a memorial to three great masterpieces of Chinese calligraphy. The initials of the name “San Wen Tong” was reversed and thus turned into “TWS”. The last letters “Bi” was added with its literal meaning of “writing instruments” in Chinese. Thus combining the two segments, creating TWSBI.
