If you like calligraphy, you have probably seen the beautiful Ziller ink in my shop. This acrylic ink is ideal for (calligraphy) nibs. Time to tell you more about it!

Ziller's is truly a family business of people with an enormous passion for beautiful writing and calligraphy. The Ziller inks really belong in Splendith's shop, because they are so nice for calligraphy.

Ziller inks contain a high concentration of pigment, making them nicely opaque. The colors will also stand out beautifully on dark paper. Furthermore, all inks are pH-balanced, lightfast and, importantly, waterproof. The ink is therefore ideal for use on envelopes, for example! The undiluted ink is similar in formula to gouache when it dries, but you can also dilute it with (distilled) water for a more transparent effect. Because the jar has a wide opening, you can easily pick up the ink with both a straight and an oblique pen holder.

How do you use Ziller ink?
It is important to stir the ink well before use. Some colors need to be mixed more than others. You can create other colors by mixing the Ziller inks together. You can do this in an empty inkwell or in, for example, the dinky dips from my shop. Clean your pen immediately after use with water and, if necessary, a little bit of ammonia. You can clean your brushes with brush cleaner.

Is your Ziller ink too thin for your chosen paper? Or do you think the ink flows too quickly from the nib? Then add a few drops of the Ziller Thickener and give the ink the consistency that works best for you! This thickener is suitable for use in combination with acrylic inks, is lightfast and waterproof. The product is very economical to use: you usually only need a few drops to give your ink the right thickness!

Ziller has also developed a pen cleaner for pigmented acrylic inks and other calligraphy inks. This makes it easy to clean your used nibs. To remove dried ink from your calligraphy nib, soak the nibs in the pen cleaner for 30 minutes and then rinse them with warm water. Repeat these steps if necessary. Dry the nibs completely after cleaning.
