Tono \u0026amp; Lims don’t publish a colour description for Laniakea, only that the Deep Field inks separate into two tones. In my swatches it writes as a soft greyish sage-khaki. The teal shows at the edges of strokes and in thicker lines. In heavy pools the olive deepens to a dark green-black. The swabs pool far more than any nib will, so expect the writing sample rather than the dramatic banding in everyday use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShading: \u003c\/strong\u003eStrong.

It’s a Hawaiian name meaning “immeasurable heaven”, given by the astronomers who mapped it in 2014. Its edges were defined by tracing which way roughly 100,000 galaxies are flowing. The branching gold artwork on the label looks like that map of the supercluster, with the small red dot marking our own galaxy. Its sister ink in the collection, Great Attractor, is named after the gravitational pull at Laniakea’s centre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is a hand-decanted 4ml sample vial from my own bottle.\u003cbr\u003ePhotos are my own swatches on Tomoe River Paper.\u003cbr\u003eI’m a collector and I’m always happy to talk ink, so please message me if you have any questions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tono \u0026 Lims","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57574266470726,"sku":null,"price":2.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/9696\/1862\/files\/Tono_LimsLaniakea3.jpg?v=1791736979","url":"https:\/\/thepensmuggler.co.uk\/products\/tono-lims-deep-field-laniakea-4ml-fountain-pen-ink-sample","provider":"The Pen Smuggler","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
