Paper & pairing

Reds and pinks show the most dramatic shading of any color family: expect real variation between the edges and center of each letter. This ink will behave predictably on most fountain-pen-friendly paper. Cheap, highly absorbent paper (standard copier paper) will dull any ink's saturation and can cause feathering or bleed-through with wetter nibs.

About Weenk

Weenk is a Korean fountain pen ink brand based in Seoul, whose name comes from the phrase "We, Ink, Weenk". It launched in fall 2023 at the Seoul Pen Show with fourteen inks organized into five collections, including several shimmer options. Its inks are sold in 15 ml and 50 ml bottles and in themed volumes such as the persimmon-inspired "Grow Ripe" series.

Storing and using the bottle

Bottled fountain pen ink has an effectively long shelf life when kept capped and out of direct sunlight: most inks remain usable for years. The main risk isn't the ink spoiling, it's a pen sitting inked and unused for weeks: that's what causes clogs, not the ink's age.

Frequently asked questions

What color family is Plum Blossom?
Plum Blossom falls into Inktend's reds & pinks family based on its typical swatch color.
Does Plum Blossom have sheen?
Plum Blossom is not typically noted for sheen. If you want that effect, browse similarly colored inks tagged with sheen in the ink library.
How should I store a bottle of Plum Blossom?
Years, easily, as long as it stays capped and out of direct sunlight. The thing that actually shortens an ink's usable life is sitting unused inside a pen, not sitting on a shelf.
What paper works best with Plum Blossom?
It behaves predictably on most fountain-pen-friendly paper. Stick to something reasonably absorbent-resistant, since cheap copier paper dulls saturation and can feather.
