23. Bekakt Haags - Akkerman fountain pen ink

The faceted ink bottle is characterized by the long neck containing a glass marble. Akkerman fountain pen ink is suitable for every type of fountain pen and available in 31 sparkling colours. The ink colours have been given names with a Hague twist

What makes this bottle so unique? By tilting the closed ink bottle, the neck fills with ink. When set upright again, the marble falls back and prevents the ink from flowing back. This creates a reservoir of ink above the marble from which the fountain pen can be filled easily, even when the bottle is almost empty.

#23. Dapper The Hague

The Hague has two city dialects: dapper The Hague and plain The Hague. Dapper The Hague is usually associated with exaggerated behavior, especially speech, emphasizing the desire to belong to the upper class. The word kakker (Caganer) is a figurine representing a crouching little man doing his business. Dapper The Hague therefore has the fitting colour brown.
