Diamine Shimmering Blue Lightning is a vibrant blue fountain pen ink with silver shimmer particles that sparkle as you write, giving your handwriting a striking pearlescent effect on the page. The shimmering particles catch the light beautifully, making this ink a fun choice for journals, letters, and creative writing.
This ink is part of Diamine’s Shimmering series, which features a range of colors with reflective metallic flecks suspended in the water-based ink. Because of the shimmer, it’s recommended to shake the bottle well before filling your pen and to clean your pen more frequently than with regular inks to avoid particle buildup.
Many fountain pen enthusiasts enjoy the dazzling look of Blue Lightning, though some note that shimmer inks can be a bit more prone to clogging in finer nibs or feeds, especially if not agitated occasionally during writing. Regular flushing helps keep flow smooth.
