India Ink

A timeless drawing ink crafted by Higgins since 1880, this deep charcoal formulation suspends micro-pulverized black carbon in shellac for unparalleled richness and fluidity. Trusted by artists, calligraphers, and illustrators worldwide, it delivers bold, expressive strokes and intricate pen work with exceptional consistency. The ink's waterproof, archival properties preserve artwork brilliance over time, while its dilutable nature yields a complete tonal range—from delicate washes to dramatic darks. Seamlessly compatible with watercolor, acrylics, graphite, pastels, and mixed media, it excels in outlining, lettering, and layered compositions. Fast-drying and non-toxic, this professional-grade ink remains the gold standard for fine art and illustration.

Usage: May be diluted with distilled water. Close cap tightly after use. Do not mix with acids, or use as tattoo ink. Not launder-proof. Clean tools with water immediately after use or with Higgins Pen Cleaner for dried ink. Shake well before use as the black pigment may settle over time. AP, Non-toxic, Conforms to ASTM D-4236
