Key features & specs

Technical aspects of the Ferris Wheel Press ink management tool.

How it compares

Unlike glass inkwells which are heavy and prone to shattering if dropped, The Carousel Inkwell is made from a high-grade polycarbonate that mimics the clarity of glass with much higher durability. It is more portable than a full bottle of ink, making it a better choice for writers who travel or attend pen shows.

How to use it

1. Unscrew the threaded cap to reveal the conical ink reservoir.
2. Fill the reservoir using a syringe or by pouring slowly from a larger bottle.
3. Insert your fountain pen nib or dip pen until the breather hole is submerged.
4. Wipe excess ink from the nib against the inner rim.
5. Securely tighten the cap after use to prevent ink evaporation or drying.

Sustainability & ethics

Ferris Wheel Press focuses on longevity, creating tools that are intended to be used for a lifetime rather than being discarded. The materials used are fully vegan, containing no animal-derived stabilizers or dyes. By encouraging the use of bottled ink rather than disposable plastic cartridges, this product significantly reduces office plastic waste.
