Wearingeul The Picture of Dorian Gray Fountain Pen Ink — 5 mL Archive Bottle
Wearingeul The Picture of Dorian Gray is a literary fountain pen ink inspired by Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray, a novel of beauty, corruption, secrecy, and the divided self.
The ink presents a dark, atmospheric color with complex shading that suits its source particularly well. On the page, its shifting tones give writing a shadowed quality—an appropriate interpretation of a novel in which an immaculate outward appearance conceals what is gradually being recorded elsewhere.
This 5 mL edition is part of the Boston Lore Studio Ink Archive, created for writers and fountain pen users who would like to explore distinctive inks without committing to a full bottle. The 5 mL format provides enough ink for meaningful writing and testing across different pens and papers while making it practical to keep several inks in rotation.
Each Archive Bottle contains genuine Wearingeul fountain pen ink, hand-filled by Boston Lore Studio into a clear Type I borosilicate glass bottle with a lined screw cap. Each bottle is individually labeled and presented in a labeled glassine envelope.
Unlike a disposable plastic sample vial, the Archive Bottle is intended to be kept. Once empty, the glass bottle can be cleaned and reused for ink, refilled from a larger bottle, carried in a pen kit, or recycled where local glass recycling accepts it.
