It has now been reformulated with a whole new feel. Both the original and the reformulation are fiery red-orange inks with a gold shimmer, but this one differs in having a higher saturation of dye, a higher quality gold shimmer that produces a more attractive effect, and a golden sheen that works alongside the shimmer to produce a truly fiery ink.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eInk Data\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003eSurface Tension: 48.4\u003csub\u003emN\/m\u003c\/sub\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0091\/2198\/8667\/files\/Sliding_Scale_-_Moderate_020b6989-74bb-474e-968a-49d0ac474451.png?v=1639402765\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tooltip\"\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eWhat is this?\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan class=\"tooltiptext\"\u003eSurface Tension affects the flow of an ink through a pen, and how quickly it is absorbed into paper.

There are a wide variety of shimmer forms and colours, each with its own qualities. Most inks contain no shimmer, and those that do can contain shimmer in differing quantities. Highly shimmered inks do carry the potential of clogging pens, especially ones with finer nibs. Van Dieman's only uses extremely high quality shimmer pigments that lower (but do not completely remove) the risk of this.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003eFlow Wetness: Moderate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0091\/2198\/8667\/files\/Sliding_Scale_-_Moderate_020b6989-74bb-474e-968a-49d0ac474451.png?v=1639402765\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"tooltip\"\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eWhat is this?\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan class=\"tooltiptext\"\u003eThis, quite simply put, is how well an ink flows through a pen, but also dictates how quickly an ink will seep into a page. Flow is affected by both the surface tension and saturation of an ink, but also by other additives such as humectants and surfactants. Inks with a high flow wetness can sometimes, but not always, feather and bleed more than other.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eVan Dieman's Night Series\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWe 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.
