Hopje Brown fountain pen ink made by P.W. Akkerman pen store in The Hague.
This caramel brown has good shading.
Originally made to celebrate their 100th anniversary, this ink comes in a vintage-style bottle with a narrow neck with a marble stopper, to create a well at the top to aid in filling pens.
Hopjes are a type of Dutch sweets, with a slight coffee and caramel flavor, that originated in the 18th century. (Source: Wikipedia) Ackerman

Hopjesbruin Bright
Named after the traditional Dutch coffee flavored candy, it ia a warm hued ink, ideal for long form writing and personal letters because it is easy on the eyes. Sweetness in an ink.

Autumn perfection!
This is just such an amazing ink, the perfect golden fall color. I cannot get over how smooth and different these inks feels. I have other "top shelf" inks but as far as I am conce...view morerned Akkerman inks really belong on a top shelf all on their own (and in all your fountain pens of course). Seriously, I cleaned off a shelf in my studio that will just be for my Akkerman inks. Not only to just have all these beautiful colors where I can see them and have them within easy reach but also to showcase the bottles that truly are so wonderfully engineered and unique. view less
