The Octopus Fluids Sheen collection offers you a range of enchanting inks with a very special two-tone effect. Each ink is inspired by a mythical creature.
They change depending on the angle of view and the paper. A metallic sheen in shades of copper, gold or pink overlays the base colour of the ink, creating a visual symphony of colour.
Set I includes the following 10ml bottles:
- Goblin - green with violet sheet
- Medusa - purple with green sheen
- Unicorn - sky blue with pink sheen
- Dragon - petrol blue with pink sheen
- Phoenix - pink with gold sheen
- Sea Serpent - indigo with copper sheen
The inks are water-soluble and, due to their composition, dry more slowly than conventional inks. Only vegan ingredients are used in the production of Sheen Inks.
Specs:
- 6 x 10 ml bottles of water-soluble dye-based fountain pen ink
- 2 year minimum storage life
- Made in Germany

Beautiful sheen. Unicorn may be my favorite sheening ink! This pack offered so many gorgeous colors.
I am so glad I bought this set. I want to focus on the phoenix, as this is the most beautiful red/orange sheen ive ever used. It says pink with gold sheen but it’s more like red with orange hue. In any case it’s so perfect. I can’t stop using it and im so glad I ordered this set. All the colors were awesome but phoenix was extra awesome.
This set from Octopus Fluids is an absolute delight for fountain pen fans who love dramatic sheening inks. The 10 ml bottles are a perfect size — enough to enjoy each ink thoroughly but not so much that I’ll never finish it. It's a great way to experiment with a range of dramatic inks without committing to full-size bottles. And the themed colors? Pure fantasy!
Each ink feels like a character of its own:
• Goblin – A mischievous green with a bold violet sheen that creeps in beautifully as it dries. It’s earthy with a touch of magic.
• Medusa – A deep purple base with a haunting green sheen — elegant, mysterious, and a bit dangerous-looking on the right paper.
• Unicorn – This sky blue ink shimmers with a soft pink sheen, like something out of a dream. Lighthearted but still striking.
• Dragon – A smoky petrol blue that burns with a pink sheen — subtle at first, then dramatic as it pools.
• Phoenix – A warm pink with a fiery gold sheen, perfect for lively notes or signature flourishes. It glows.
• Sea Serpent – A deep indigo with a rich copper sheen, this one feels ancient and powerful — like ink pulled from the ocean floor.
All six inks offer smooth flow, strong saturation, and a reliable dose of sheen, especially on coated or high-quality paper like Tomoe River or Cosmo Air Light. They behave well in various nib sizes, and the colors remain distinct even with fine nibs.
This set is not just functional — it’s fun. The mythical theme, vibrant pairings, and playful names make it feel like you’re casting a little spell every time you write.
