Receta: Alizarine Ink I

Alizarine ink has a beautiful, slightly greyish blue tone, reminding of natural indigo. It becomes even darker while drying and slowly loses the blue cast when exposed to light.

Procesamiento

Paso 1: Put the gall apples in a textile bag and crush the apples with a hammer. Then roughly pulverize them in a mortar. Boil the powder with the madder roots in water for about 1.5 hours. The liquid should be reduced to 3/5 of the original quantity.

Paso 2: After filtration first add indigotine blue, then the iron (II) sulphate and finally drops of vinegar.
