The FerriTales Ink Collection

Introduction

Theย FerriTales line is Ferris Wheel Pressโ€™s flagship โ€œstory-inkโ€ series โ€” where colour, shimmer, sheen, and narrative unite. In FerriTales, each ink bottle tells (or nods to) a tale โ€” a chapter in an ever-expanding world of imaginative writing.

Letโ€™s explore what makes FerriTales special and how to get the most from these magical inks.

What Is FerriTales?

  • FerriTales is a premium fountain pen ink collection by Ferris Wheel Press.

  • The collection includes richly saturated colours, often with duochrome, shimmer, or sheen effects.

  • Bottles are designed to be beautiful as display pieces: for example, Sugar and Spite comes in a 20 mL glass globe bottle with a widened neck to better accommodate pens.

  • The line includes themed series like Once Upon a Time and Bestiary, each ink tied to a narrative or mythic concept.

Signature Characteristics & Performance

  • Many FerriTales inks show rose gold shimmer, duochrome effects, or layered colour shifts.

  • Though some shimmer inks can be tricky, reviewers generally note that the sparkle in FerriTales is fine enough that it doesnโ€™t easily clog a pen.ย 

  • In swatch tests, inks like Blushing Mushroom reveal strong shading layers and vibrant shimmer.

  • Some inks perform more dramatically in pool or shading areas; on highly absorbent paper, the shimmer may be less pronounced.

  • Many users emphasize that despite the decorative effects, these inks remain practical โ€” the shimmer cleans out with a few flushes in most cases.

Featured Inks

Here are a few standout FerriTales inks you can showcase or link:

  • Moonbeam Meadows โ€” a deeply atmospheric tone with shimmer and mood.

  • Song of Scarlet โ€” a rich red that may show gold tones or glow under light.

  • Tumbling Time Blue โ€” a blue with layered depths and subtle sparkle.

  • Cloak and Forest โ€” dark, forest-inspired tones that hint at mystery.

  • Ruby Royal Flush โ€” jewel-red with intense visual presence.

  • Billowing Blush โ€” a softer, elegant tone with delicate shimmer.

Tips for Using FerriTales Inks Well

  1. Use wetter pens or broader nibs
    To bring out shimmer and duochrome, more ink flow helps carry the particle effects.

  2. Be patient while drying
    Because of shimmer and sheening, some inks require extra drying time before stacking pages.

  3. Flush more often to minimize buildup
    Even though the sparkle is fine, regular cleaning helps maintain smooth performance.

  4. Test on different papers
    Try your ink on coated and absorbent papers to see how the effects shift โ€” shimmer may show stronger on less absorbent paper.

  5. Shake lightly before filling
    Give your bottle a gentle swirl to re-distribute shimmer particles evenly before filling your converter.

How FerriTales Matches the Ferris Wheel Press Story

FerriTales embodies the core of your brand: storytelling through stationery. Each ink becomes a short narrative โ€” whether itโ€™s Sugar and Spite evoking a fairy tale, a forest dusk in Cloak and Forest, or mythical beasts in the Bestiary series.

The design of bottles, names, and colour families invites users to not just write, but to imagine. FerriTales is where your creative world and their page meet.
