Ink Review #255: De Atramentis Pearlescent Velvet Black Copper

 

Today I’ll be reviewing a shimmer ink from de Atramentis. Velvet Black Copper is a smooth gray-black ink with pearlescent shimmer.

Swabs: 

 

This ink had no shading or sheen but high glitter. The color is a smoky black and gleams with copper/rose-gold glitter. The pink glitter gives the black a copper-like glow.

This ink had a long dry time at 40 seconds and high water resistance.

Writing Sample:

This ink had a wet flow. I did not experience any hard starts or skips while using this ink. The glitter does not smear.

Overall: I’m not often impressed with glitter inks but made an exception for this one. It is water resistant (my favorite quality), wet, and has lots of rose-gold/copper glitter.
