Van Dieman's Professional - Natura Dualis Night Fall Dual Tone Fountain Pen - 2ml Ink Sample

Nightfall – Natura Dualis Collection

The Natura Dualis collection by Van Dieman’s is a study in transformation — an exploration of natural moments where opposites blend rather than break. These inks are designed not just for colour, but for movement: each one is formulated for dual or multi-shading, with flowing transitions, halos, riverlets, and soft colour splits that reveal different tones across paper types and nib sizes. They shift with your writing — echoing the way light, weather, and seasons never stay still.

Nightfall is the moment where light gives way to shadow, but doesn’t vanish — it lingers, deepens, and cools. This ink captures that quiet shift in the sky, when the last warmth of day recedes and the night begins its slow approach. Where Daybreak glows with optimism, Nightfall hums with calm, introspection, and softness.

The colour begins as a dusky violet, but shades outward into stormy indigo, lavender, and a subtle cool blue fringe. On paper, it pools richly in broad strokes, showing strong edge shading and layered tone, while in finer lines it leans toward a faded twilight lilac. Like its namesake, it’s a colour of quiet complexity — one that doesn’t demand attention, but rewards it.
