Description

Chestnut Ink Watercolor Ink is our exquisitely hand-crafted watercolor ink made with an extremely concentrated, high-quality single source pigment. Every bottle is meticulously hand mixed, poured, and sealed, using only pure distilled water and a small amount of all natural, pure gum arabic to achieve an exceptionally vibrant and richly pigmented liquid.

This ink delivers a richly saturated, earthy tone with a naturally organic character reminiscent of classical botanical illustrations and historic manuscripts. Its smooth, fluid consistency and nuanced transparency make it ideal for creating detailed washes, expressive line work, and refined calligraphy. Perfect for artists who value authenticity and natural warmth, Chestnut Ink brings a timeless, organic quality to your creative work.
