5 mL Ink Bottles

A small bottle is an invitation to try a color before committing to a full one. Boston Lore Studio’s 5 mL specimen bottles are hand-decanted from authentic full bottles into glass vials with screw caps and our printed label: enough for several fills, a page of swatches, or a week of letters.

The Ink Archive grows a few colors at a time. Each listing names the original ink and maker; the full-size bottles shown in photos are for reference and are not included.
