Frequently asked questions

Some questions and answers are automatically generated.

What does this ink smell like?

Multiple reviewers praise the scent, describing it as beautiful and lovely. The ink is enhanced with Rose Absolute and Pursat Oud essential oil, which give it an aromatic quality that complements its deep red color and intended ceremonial purpose.

How does the ink's consistency compare?

Several customers note the ink is thicker and more opaque than other dragon's blood inks they've used, with good consistency for writing. One reviewer mentioned it congeals quickly and can bleed through some dip pen nibs, so pen choice matters.

Is the color as deep red as shown?

Most reviewers describe the color as vibrant and beautiful. One customer noted it appeared less red than pictured, though they also found it thicker and less watery than other dragon's blood inks they'd tried.

Will this work with fountain pens?

Multiple reviewers advise against using this ink in fountain pens; it's designed for dip pens and calligraphy use. The ink's resin content causes it to congeal in fountain pen mechanisms and can clog glass pen grooves, so traditional or metal dip pens are recommended.

How quickly does the ink dry?

Several customers mention the ink dries relatively quickly. One reviewer noted it dries fast enough that it can stick in glass pen grooves, though drying speed may vary depending on the writing instrument and paper used.

Is this a high-quality product?

The vast majority of reviewers consistently praise the quality, describing it as excellent, impressive, and among the best they've encountered. Many are repeat customers and express strong satisfaction with the product.

Can I use this with glass dip pens?

Multiple reviewers experienced issues with glass pens, noting that the ink's resin content gets caught in the grooves and dries quickly, making the pens difficult to use and clean. Regular or metal dip pens are better suited to this ink.

Will it stain clothing if spilled?

The product description warns that the ink is deep blood-red and permanent, so you should avoid splashing it on clothes. This permanent nature is by design for its ceremonial and magical writing purposes.

Dragon's Blood Ink is traditionally used to empower and charge ceremonial, religious and magical scripts.
It is thought to help focus, amplify and anchor one's magical intent adding permanence and power.

There are a few different types of Dragon's Blood resin. This ink is made with a combination of "Medieval" Dragon's Blood resin, Yunnan Dragon's Blood resin and Virgin Dragon's Blood.

I felt this creation needed an aroma that suited its use, (since Dragon's Blood resin has no fragrance unless it is burned). I enhanced it with Rose Absolute and Pursat Oud essential oil to give it an aromatic weight that matched its colour and purpose.

You can also make your own Dragon's Blood ink.

A good basic formula is 1 part Dragon's Blood powder to 10 parts Dragon's Blood powder. Some formulas call for the addition of Gum Arabic but I don't believe it is needed when using 95% alcohol which was not readily available in the distant past.

There are approximately 20 different trees around the world that supply a red resin called Dragons Blood. Some grow in Asia and others South America, but, it is thought that the Dragons Blood from the Dracaena cinnabari tree on the island of Socotra is the original resin traded for over a thousand years to the West along with Frankincense and Myrrh through the "Incense Route". For this reason, it is considered to be the material referred to in ancient Greek and Medieval texts, formularies and Pharmacopeia through the ages. This has lent this resin the nickname "Medieval" Dragons Blood.
