Máté Bikfalvi, the owner of Pennonia, shares thoughts on the ink colour: Pennonia Hupikék is a light blue that, some say, was inspired by the color of the Smurfs. Growing up the Smurfs was one of my favorite cartoons and I always watched it on TV. In Hungarian name of the show was Hupikék Törpikék. The name actually refers to the blue your skin gets after you get whooped and that's why this ink is called Whoopie Blue in English.
Note: Bottles shown are 50ml, however, Pennonia has recently switched to 60ml bottles! They're just a little taller but share the same qualities as the 50ml bottles.
All Pennonia inks are created by hand using high-quality ingredients, precise measurements, and a pinch of passion for writing and inks to bring you, vivid, beautiful colors to write with. They are designed to work flawlessly with your favorite writing instruments, offering a smooth, pleasant writing experience. Pennonia inks can also be customized with different color shimmer powders based on your preference.
Each bottle is hand-labeled using Clairefontaine Clairmail 60 g/m2 white paper and the bottles themselves are pharmaceutical-grade amber glass bottles to protect the inks from UV light. The bottle's wide mouth is excellent for filling any kind of fountain pen and reduces the chances of accidentally tipping them over when filling.
