Calligraphy ink is a specialized type of ink designed for use in calligraphy, the art of beautiful handwriting. It is typically thicker than regular ink, allowing for smooth flow and rich color on paper. Calligraphy ink can be made from various materials, including dyes and pigments, and is available in a wide range of colors. This ink is often used with calligraphy pens or brushes, which help create elegant strokes and intricate designs. Unlike standard ink, calligraphy ink is formulated to prevent smudging and fading, ensuring that the finished work remains vibrant and clear over time.
