GRAF VON FABER-CASTELL Fountain Pen Ink Bottle 75mL - Lapislazuli

Inks you use and inks you experience

Graf von Faber-Castell fountain pen inks are designed with the same philosophy as their pens, which is precision, refinement, and quiet confidence. From the weight of the glass bottle to the smoothness on paper, every detail is deliberate, but not over done.

What sets it apart

• One of the smoothest fountain pen inks you'll ever use
• Good range of dye-heavy colours
• The bottle alone (fluted glass) will persuade you to write
• Feels refined without trying too hard
• Reliable in any pen, and with some water resistance

How it makes you feel

Graf inks give you a feeling of control. The stability of the bottles and the depth of the line. Writing becomes less about getting words down and more about enjoying how they arrive.

Who it’s for

• Fountain pen users who value smoothness and consistency
• Professionals wanting a refined, understated ink
• Writers who enjoy ritual and tactile experience
• Anyone pairing ink with premium pens or desk setups
• Artists adding soluble ink as a wash over mixed media

Who it’s not for

• If you need waterproof or archival permanence
• If you prefer high sheen or novelty inks
• If you want the lowest maintenance, like school inks
• If you need a small quantity of ink (Graf bottles are 75mL)

About this colour - Lapislazuli

• Deep ultramarine blue with subtle mineral-like depth and richness
• Moderate shading reveals beautiful tonal variation in broader nibs 
• Reminds you of Renaissance pigments, night skies with texture and depth
• Low water resistance (not waterproof)
  

Practical tips

• Use on smoother paper to maximise glide and colour depth
  
• Use as a daily writer ink despite the premium feel
• Pair with cream or textured paper to bring out its full character

FAQs

Is this ink waterproof?
No, it’s a dye-based ink designed for smoothness and elegance, not permanence. The load of dye however creates some water resistance.

Does it work in all fountain pens?
Yes, it’s very well behaved and compatible across most pens.

Is the bottle practical or just aesthetic?
Both. The wide opening and weight make filling easy and stable.

Does it feather or bleed?
Minimal on good paper. Performance depends on paper quality.
