Cosmic Sky

Perfect for those who are inclined to making something a little more curious and out of this world. This set consists of one 30ml bottle of logwood ink and the set of two modifiers : Alum and Iron. Providing you with an extensive range of colours available from this one ink. Ideal for those starting out with botanical inks or for someone who is interested in the chemistry behind natural inks.

Usually priced at £14.50 each (modifiers £7.50 each) means this set saves you £4.50.

All Inks are handcrafted in the UK using sustainably sourced natural pigments.

Each 30ml bottle has its own batch date, glass ball bearing inside, (to help re-mix any separated pigments) is preserved with organic clove oil and comes with instructions/ tips on best uses.

Granulation when using botanical inks is fairly common as these are rich in pigment and have less fillers then synthetic colours. Small glass balls are added to each bottle to help with blending the inks prior to use. Some colours may have more granulation then others i.e indigo and earth pigments.

Botanical inks blend and mix on an alchemical level rather than standard pigments; that doesn't mean you can’t mix them together; it simply means that adding blue to yellow might not always make green. What this does mean however is that depending on your choice of inks or modifiers you’ll get a variety of tones and colours from one base ingredient. Purely by shifting its ph or adding a little diluted iron water can extend the colour range of once ink.

We’ve added additional photos of ink tests to show you how certain colours may shift and change depending on the modifiers you use.
