Tesla Coil is part of the Keystone Formula fountain pen ink line, our traditional dye-colorant ink. The 100mL volume will provide approximately 125 standard converter refills assuming a 0.8mL draw. 

Tesla Coil will produce a sheening effect on high-quality papers like Tomoe River and Rhodia. Our writing sample in this listing was made on 68 gsm Tomoe River paper.

Enjoy Tesla Coil as a standalone fountain pen ink, or blend it with other Birmingham Pen Co. fountain pen inks to craft your personalized shade.

Formula Guide

We've compartmentalized our fountain pen ink recipes into four principal categories characterized by differentiating elements of the colorant component in the formula. A colorant is a dye or pigment that exhibits color. An ink vehicle is a series of chemicals used to transport colorant from storage reservoir to substrate (paper in our case). 

Keystone Formula inks are engineered using water-soluble dyes to produce a broad spectrum of colors with a variety of unique and desirable writing properties. Fitting the bill for a traditional fountain pen ink, this series by far the most popular. 

Delicate Formula inks are constructed with dyes selected for both performance and washability. Colors in this series will clean easily from most fabrics and surfaces with soap and water.

Everlasting Formula inks are compounded with pigmented colorants to produce highly water resistant and archival properties on paper.

Twinkle Formula inks are formulated using hybrid dye and pigment combinations to create a unique twinkling luster. 

Sample Recipe

This ink is part of our Atomink Element line, a series of foundational hues specifically crafted for blending.

Use this color independently, or mix it with other Birmingham Pen Co. inks to produce our recipes or your own custom shade.
