Once Upon a Design
Notable design details:
- King Midas implores Dionysus to free him of this golden curse and wash away his greed.
- King Midas is notorious for his love of all things opulent, even his lakes are laden with gold coins! How many types of drachmas can you spot?
- Our enchanted ink takes inspiration from the calming blue waves lapping over the gold, slowly washing away the curse and cleansing the greed in Midas’ heart.
Care instructions
Filling/Changing Ink Colours:
- Unscrew to remove the barrel from the grip section and access the converter.
- Place the fountain pen nib fully into warm water. Flush the nib by twisting/untwisting the converter until the water runs clear.
- Allow 1 day to dry.
- Fill a new colour by fully submerging the nib and feeder into the ink, then draw the ink into your pen but twisting the converter until you’ve reached the top position.
Notes:
- For heavily saturated inks and darker tones, or clogged nibs, you may need to soak the grip/feeder in water overnight
- It is normal for some air bubbles to enter the converter when refilling ink
