Avocado Peel Natural Ink
Made-to-order ink from collected Avocado peels. We eat a lot of avocado around here and I'm excited to be able to put the peels to such good use with this ink! I love the earthy warmth of this ink and the intensity of the color. When neutral, this ink is a light earthy salmon color, and when made more alkaline it turns quite a bit darker and deeper (see photo #3).
2 oz glass bottle with dropper.
Because these inks are made to order and I'm a full time mom, please allow two weeks for production and about a week for shipping! I'll get it out as quickly as possible, Thank you!
About Natural Inks:
The back of the bottle includes a batch and best-by date that is six months after the batching date. Because all of the ingredients in this ink are natural, it will inevitably go bad with time. I use three natural preservatives and anti-fungals to extend the shelf-life of these inks: whole cloves (which you can see at the bottom of the bottle or floating in the ink), wintergreen oil and gum arabic. Use them fresh! Don't be shy with application! I often apply them to paper directly from the dropper and then push them around with the brush without even adding water.
These inks are made more for painting than writing with, though they can be used for dip pens. If used in fountain pens be sure to rinse and refill frequently to prevent sediment build up or decay inside the pen chamber. When written with, these inks will appear less dark than many standard inks.
