Recommended to us by a brilliant retailer in Paris, we put it to the test in all of our pens – and let’s just say, it’s earned its place as a studio favourite. Smooth to write with, ultra-black, and able to hold its ground under a watercolour wash, this ink is a go-to for artists, illustrators, and writers alike.

Crafted in Japan, Platinum’s Carbon Ink is formulated with ultra-fine pigment particles, giving it exceptional permanence while keeping the flow smooth. It’s completely waterproof and lightfast, making it perfect for everything from detailed ink drawings to important documents that need to stand the test of time.

This beautiful ink is the perfect pairing with a Tom's Studio Lumos, Wren, or Fountain Pen. Each bottle holds 60ml of inky brilliance.

Platinum carbon ink versus # 60 waterproof Ink

I really like the #60 black ink but found that it was sticking or drying too much in the smaller nibs. I prefer using a .2 nib for most of the work that I do. I'm still using the #60 ink in the larger nibs but for the smaller nib the platinum carbon ink works amazingly well.

Glad you have it in sortiment

In my opinion best ink for Lumos pens. Once dry it is permanent with almost any other media. I use it since years in my artwork.
