Meet the Ink Maker: Endless

Endless makes the Alchemy 45ml ink collection.
Many people know Endless for their notebooks, the Endless Recorder.

Endless is known for its high-quality notebooks, but it recently entered the world of fountain pen inks—and let’s just say they didn’t come quietly. With their Alchemy Collection, they’ve turned the concept of ink bottles on its head (literally).

Get to Know the Ink Series: Endless Alchemy Ink Series

The Endless Alchemy 45ml ink collection.
The first four inks in the Endless Alchemy ink collection were well received. Molten Bronze was part of the highly anticipated 2nd release.

The Alchemy Collection by Endless is a lineup of unique, thematically rich inks inspired by the ancient art of alchemy. Each ink in the series boasts not only a fascinating color but also an avant-garde bottle design that makes it as much of a display piece as it is a writing essential.

This Week’s Featured Ink: Endless Molten Bronze Ink Review

This week, we’re diving into the molten depths of Endless Molten Bronze ink. While the name evokes the imagery of freshly cast metal, the ink itself plays a game of duality—writing a deep brown while displaying bronzed undertones in broader strokes and swabbing. If you’ve ever wanted to feel like an alchemist at your desk, this might be your golden (or rather, bronze) opportunity.

Endless Molten Bronze Ink Review: The Ink’s Bottle and Packaging

The Endless Molten Bronze Alchemy 45ml ink bottle.

Endless did something truly different here. The 45ml glass bottle has a rounded bottom, which means it leans at a slight angle but refuses to topple over—thanks to a cork bottom that keeps it upright when needed.

Dubbed the “rotating ink bottle,” this design ensures that the days of mundane ink bottles are over. The alchemy-themed box is also worth mentioning—its color closely mirrors the ink inside, adding a nice touch of cohesion to the whole experience.

Other Products Used During the Endless Molten Bronze Ink Review

How Did the Ink Perform During the 1-Dip Test?

Molten Bronze fountain pen ink had no problem acing the one-dip test, easily writing three full lines with ink still left over. That’s a win for efficiency and a great sign for those who love a well-saturated ink.

Dry Time: How Fast Did Molten Bronze Ink Dry?

Dry time came in at around 10 seconds, which is fairly standard. Not lightning-fast, but also not a patience-testing slow dry time. If you’re a lefty, you may still want to be mindful of smudging.

Water Test: How Did the Ink Perform When Exposed to Water?

The water test revealed fairly significant running but surprisingly little fading. No bleeding occurred, and while some line fading was present, the main effect was ink displacement rather than complete loss of definition. In other words, don’t expect this ink to survive a coffee spill unscathed, but it won’t ghost entirely, either.

Did Endless Molten Bronze Ink Show Off Any Special Properties? 

Molten Bronze leans into its name, offering medium shading with no sheen. The shading is most noticeable in swabbing, where the bronze hues come through more vibrantly. However, in writing, the ink presents itself as a darker brown. A dip pen or a wet-writing fountain pen will bring out its richest tones.

Was There Any Feathering or Bleeding During the Ink Review?

No feathering. No bleed-through. Endless Molten Bronze ink behaves itself like a well-mannered scholar on Rhodia paper.

Endless Molten Bronze Ink Review: Final Thoughts

Endless Alchemy 45ml ink bottle

Endless Molten Bronze ink isn’t just another brown ink—it’s an experience. Between the show-stopping bottle design and the bronze-inspired tones, this ink brings both function and form to your desk. While it writes a bit darker than the name suggests, the shading in swabbing and washes still delivers that metallic allure. If you’re looking for an ink that stands out before it even touches paper, Molten Bronze is a worthy addition to your collection.

Just don’t try turning lead into gold with it—we checked, and this ink didn’t make it any easier to reproduce results from legendary alchemical experiments.
