Wearingeul Edward Hyde Fountain Pen Ink – 30 mL
Wearingeul Edward Hyde is the darker counterpart to Henry Jekyll: a saturated warm purple with magenta undertones and a persistent green sheen. The contrast is immediate and unsettling, which makes it a fitting interpretation of Stevenson’s divided self.
Independent reviewers report little conventional shading but clearly visible green sheen wherever ink pools, along with strong saturation and generally generous flow. The sheen is easiest to see on less absorbent paper. This is a sheen ink, not a shimmer ink—there are no suspended glitter particles.
