Drawing Ink - Black Indian Ink

Our Black Indian Ink is pigment based allowing the ink to have washes painted on top without bleeding. This ink can be applied with brush, or dip pen. Black ink was known as masi in India. It was only in the mid 17th century, when Europe began importing ink from India, that it became known as Indian ink. Our main priority is to offer the highest quality drawings inks, which have been used and loved by illustrators since the 1890’s.
