Winsor & Newton Calligraphy Inks

Calligraphy - meaning the art of beautiful writing, has been used in various forms since ancient times. From ancient Greece and Rome to the Middle Ages, calligraphy was seen as both a skilled art and the main source of written communication and expression until the invention of the printing press.  Calligraphy today is increasingly popular and is enjoyed by professional and amateur artists from all over the world.

Winsor & Newton have used their expertise in the production of fine inks since the 1890s to create a wide range of 18 colours which are brilliant and lightfast, allowing today's calligraphers to continue to create this important and flourishing art form.

Winsor & Newton Calligraphy Inks offer the widest colour range available for use with a Dip pen or Fountain pen.  The range consists of 18 colours, 14 vibrant colours covering the colour spectrum and 4 extra colours - Matt Black, White, Gold and Silver.  All colours are available in 30ml bottles. All the inks have been formulated with carefully chosen pigments to ensure maximum brilliance of colour.  Single pigments have been used wherever possible to make clean colour mixtures.

All colours suitable for dip pen and brush

*All colours except Matt Black, White, SIlver and Gold are also suitable for technical pen and airbrush application.
