TWSBI 1791 Fountain Pen Ink – 18ml Bottle

The TWSBI 1791 Ink range is a quietly literary affair, drawing its name and colour inspiration from Dream of the Red Chamber, one of China’s four great classical novels. First written in 1791, the book’s richly described buildings, interiors, and atmospheres provided the palette for this thoughtful collection of fountain pen inks.

Each colour comes housed in a handsome, square-profiled frosted glass bottle, holding a perfectly manageable 18ml of ink—ideal for writers and collectors who prefer variety over vast quantities. The translucent dark red cap is subtly branded with the TWSBI logo, adding a restrained finishing touch that feels both modern and traditional.

Practical to the last drop, these bottles are also compatible with the TWSBI Vac 20A and Diamond 50 inkwells, making it easy to extract every final, precious millilitre of ink.
