Dominant Industry

Alchemist Series Color-Changing Dip Pen Bottled Ink, Moonstone

Regular price $24.00
This specialty calligraphy ink contains UV-reactive pigments that shift in appearance when exposed to sunlight, revealing dramatic color changes on the page.

Moonstone Ink has a magical, ever-changing quality inspired by the phases of the moon. On the page, it begins as a soft, pale orange, but when exposed to UV light, it shifts into a cool grayish blue. Bring it back indoors, and the color gradually returns to its original warm tone. A subtle shimmer runs through the ink, adding an extra layer of quiet sparkle and enchantment.

Dominant Industry Alchemist Calligraphy Ink is made specifically for dip pens and should not be used in pens with internal filling mechanisms.

The ink comes in a thoughtfully designed 25 ml glass bottle with a teardrop shape and thick base that highlights the color inside. With an 18 mm opening, it accommodates most pens, and its sculptural design makes it just as lovely to display on a desk or shelf as it is to use.

Dominant Industry is a South Korea–based ink brand founded in 2021 in Paju, known for producing small-batch inks that are both expressive and a pleasure to use. Drawing on mixing and blending techniques originally developed for silk-screen printing, the brand creates specialty calligraphy and dip-pen inks with striking metallic, mirror, and reflective effects. Rather than flat, digitally mixed colors, Dominant Industry focuses on creating vivid, dimensional hues using reflective and transparent pigments that interact with natural light. The result is ink that feels alive on the page - what the brand calls “bottled light.”

Their lineup is offered in four distinct finishes - Hologram, Mirror, Pearl, and Standard - each designed to showcase depth, movement, and beauty across a variety of surfaces, from paper to film and glass.
