Roaring Patina Black Ink: Ferris Wheel Press
I will never be able to say enough about this ink except, PLEASE BRING IT BACK! Roaring Patina Black fountain pen ink was a limited edition release for 2022 from Ferris Wheel Press. I didn’t appreciate it enough when it was available. Lesson learned! If you love an ink, don’t set it free, buy several bottles and hoard that stuff!
I hadn’t used a shimmer ink before buying this bottle and honestly, had never intended to until I saw the presentation of this ink! It screamed 1920s with the bottle design and ink name and that was enough for me to give it a try.

Roaring Patina Black is a DEEP blue ink that has three distinct layers. If you let it split it had a deep blue base with a black sheen and gold shimmer. The shimmer is loaded in this ink and surprisingly resists smudging like a champ!
Even though this ink is not currently in circulation I highly recommend you watch my video to see its qualities. Perhaps Ferris Wheel Press will re-release! In the meantime If you would like to try something similar, Atlas Stationers collaborated with Ferris Wheel Press for an exclusive ink called “Atlas Iron Ore.” I had wanted to see what a silver shimmer would look like instead of Roaring Patina Black’s gold shimmer and it is a nice ink. It doesn’t quite pack the punch that RPB had for me personally but I use the “Atlas Iron Ore” regularly.

Roaring Patina Black became one of my favorite inks of all time. Why I didn’t buy several bottles when I had the chance I’ll never know! My naughty cats knocked over my only bottle and so my supply is quite low.
