PURE COLOR Dye Ink provides vibrant even coverage for easy stamping. The unique formula quickly absorbs into the paper and evens out as it dries for a perfect impression.
**matte finish, this ink does not have a metallic sheen**
I've been looking for a colour like this for ages - there is nothing else quite like it on the market. As others have noted, this is not a metallic ink - think instead a rich, warm, vintage gold with deep caramel undertones. The ink stamps beautifully and dries to a smooth, even finish. A fantastic neutral and a real must-have.
I am a confessed WPlus9 dye ink fan through and through. Every colour is rich and intense in it's own way but this "Old Gold' just blew the doors off my ink collection. It's brass like but gold but tarnished with a patina that's warm and comforting. It doesn't need to be metallic or shiny to be gold...it has depth and richness to it. I double stamp festive season sayings using it and my Misti stamp press (precise perfect re-stamping) and the text is deep, dark and antique gold. It may simply be the best gold ink on the market. Glad I got a refill at the same time...will be needing it.
I was very impressed by this ink. I have a lot of inks, A LOT. And did not think something could impress me. Was wrong. Love this color. It is not metallic, but gives a feeling that this is metallic one. Looks like a rich vintage gold. Awesome!
