Van Dieman's Ink

Lost Vistas - Libraries of Alexandria Fountain Pen Ink

Lost Vistas - Libraries of Alexandria Fountain Pen Ink

Exclusively available at Pulp Addiction

The Libraries of Alexandria ink is a poignant reminder of the invaluable knowledge and wisdom lost to the flames of destruction, a tragedy that echoes the dangers of letting the fervor of mob mentality overpower reason and respect for knowledge. The Library of Alexandria, once a beacon of learning and cultural exchange, represented the pinnacle of ancient world knowledge, storing works that spanned fields from astronomy to literature. Its destruction is not just a loss of books but a profound loss of ancient wisdom that could have further enriched our understanding of the past and guided our future.

This exclusive ink for Pulp Addiction embodies the spirit of what was lost and the lessons learned. Its color—a rich hue that resides between terracotta and light crimson—evokes the earthen resilience of the ancient world, while its color-changing shimmer shifts between red, green, and gold in the light, symbolizing the multifaceted knowledge that once filled the library's halls.

Using the Libraries of Alexandria ink is an invitation to reflect on the importance of preserving knowledge and culture against the threats of ignorance and destruction. It serves as a call to learn from the past, to value and protect the repositories of human achievement, and to ensure that the legacy of learning and enlightenment is never again extinguished by the shadows of intolerance.
