Ink:      PETROL BLUE BOAT

Description:   Another extremely rare offering, this time an ordinary 'boat ink' but in a fabulously vibrant mid-petrol blue. This colour is seldom seen on any ink other than the square four penrests (and even they are scarce and desirable). This one also has attractive brown striations swirling around the shoulders and neck and some tiny white speck inclusions near the surface of the glass.
