Pineider Ink Alchemy Set (Discontinued)

Alchemy of Colors is an invitation to you to use your imagination and creativity, to look at the colourful side of the world. The collection takes its inspiration from the printing system known as CMYK which stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key Black, a color model also known as quadrichromy. When the first three colours are superimposed in varying amounts, they can create almost any color. The system is fairly simple: by varying the amounts of Cyan, Magenta and Yellow you can obtain virtually any color from red, pink and sky blue to purple, orange, green or any other combination. Black, in addition to being a primary color, serves the obvious purpose of instantly darkening any color formulation. Pineider has also invented a transparent ink for lightening the color formulated and for thus creating a full range of sub-shades.

Instructions:
Carefully replace each dropper in its bottle. If you accidentally pollute a color, all subsequent formulations will also be distorted.
The unit of measurement is the drop, so you cannot add less than one drop.
Using the basic chart provided, mix the number of drops required for each color in one of the five bottles provided in order to obtain the color you want.
Make sure the bottle is tightly sealed then shake it lightly.
Add black to obtain a darker shade or transparent to obtain a lighter shade.
The amount of each formulation can be reduced or increased by dividing or multiplying the drops required to achieve the color by the same number.

Alchemy of Colors includes:
Complete quadrichromy, cyan, magenta, yellow and black transparent. Accessories: snorkel and pen filler

• 5 50/100 ml bottles with the colors: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black, Transparent, fitted with dropper.

5 empty bottles but fitted with tops to make formulations and to save the color you have created.
1 filler for plunger pens allowing you to fill a pen with a single refill.

Accessories:

• Snorkel –stainless steel extension with an adaptor nozzle for the converters most commonly found on the market, to allow you to use even only a few drops of a test ink, so that you do not have to make large amounts of ink but only what you need to fill a converter-cartridge pen once.
