Higgins Black India Ink, 16oz

SKU: 44203

Unlike waterproof inks, this non-waterproof formula allows for seamless blending, shading, and washes — ideal for artists who seek to create depth and dimension in their work. The ink’s reactivity to water enables delicate transitions and soft gradients. Additionally, this ink is forgiving, allowing for corrections and adjustments. Its carefully balanced, carbon pigment formula is the lightest of the Higgins India Inks, but can be layered to create dense areas of black, as well as diluted to create subtle shifts in the lightest gray tones.

A warm black, this is a true artist’s ink. Non-waterproof black holds precise pen line work as well as bold strokes and delicate brushwork. It differs greatly from black watercolor in that watercolor displays more water solubility and transparency than non-waterproof black ink due to the gum arabic binder. Non-waterproof black ink is semi-opaque and staining: dry edges may be softened, but are not completely lifted.

Usage: May be diluted with distilled water. Close cap tightly after use. Do not mix with acids, or use as tattoo ink. Not launder-proof. Clean tools with water immediately after use or with Higgins Pen Cleaner for dried ink. Shake well before use as the black pigment may settle over time.

Time-tested: First produced in 1880, trusted by artists, calligraphers, and illustrators.
Rich pigmentation: Deep charcoal color with micro-pulverized black carbon in a shellac solution.
Versatile use: Ideal for bold brush strokes, delicate pen work, and mixed media projects.
Durable and reliable: Permanent, waterproof, fast-drying, and archival quality.
Mixable: Blends with other Higgins inks for custom shades and gradients.
Media compatibility: Works with watercolor, acrylics, graphite, pastels, alcohol markers, and more.
Easy maintenance: Cleans up with water or Higgins Pen Cleaner. Shake before use.
Safe and non-toxic: AP certified, conforms to ASTM D-4236 standards.
Usage: May be diluted with distilled water. Close cap tightly after use. Do not mix with acids, or use as tattoo ink. Not launder-proof.
