2ml sample of Van Diemans Night Golden Orb Web fountain pen ink, in a labeled plastic vial.

Ink Samples are a great way to try out new inks without investing in the expense of a full bottle. 2mls is normally good enough to fill a converter 1-2 times giving ample examples of how the ink writes.

1 x 2ml Vial.

Golden Orb Web is a light sun yellow ink with gold solar shimmer. This ink resembles the incredible web of the Golden Orb Spider. Golden orb webs are massive to behold, with a shimmering yellow colour. The silken fibers of these webs are so soft, yet so strong, that they are the only spider thread ever used to make textiles for humans. A single garment was made, stronger than Kevlar, yet softer than silk, from over a million collections of thread from Golden Orb weaving spiders. And not a single spider was hurt in its making. This ink shades incredibly well from the faintest yellow to almost orange, and has a high quality golden shimmer not previously used in ink, that creates a perfectly even distribution of shimmer throughout, while also holding well to the page.

Van Dieman's Night Series

We have discontinued the old "Midnight" Series, which focused more on the "spooky" and the "scary" of nighttime, and refocused on the night itself as a source of inspiration. We have reformulated and massively improved three of the most popular inks from the original Midnight series, but also created 13 new inks, all of which are exciting innovations.
