Ink: Diamine Stargazer

Stargazer is a beautiful blue ink with shimmer and sheen.

There’s a lot of blue shimmering particles in my bottle.

When I saw the name on this bottle of ink, I knew I had to pair this ink with my Pilot Stargazer pen. As I was writing in my journal, I was in awe at the amount of sheen I was seeing. My handwriting appears to glow on the page.

Check out my swatch card! If you can get past the sheen, the ink leans towards a teal blue color.

It’s hard to describe this ink color by just looking at my handwriting sample. It looks like a dark blue ink with plenty of red sheen.

Where did all my shimmer go?

This ink creates a lovely bold wash on paper with red sheen around the edges.

Stargazer is a lovely dark blue ink. Depending on the lighting, it can lean towards a dark teal blue. This ink produces a wonderful bright red sheen with blue shimmers. Another color for my wish list.
