• Abhartach (Black) Alcohol Ink 15ml

So why the name Abhartach?

There is a place in the parish of Errigal in Derry, called Slaghtaverty, but it ought to have been called Laghtaverty, the laght or sepulchral monument of the abhartach or dwarf. This dwarf was a magician, and a dreadful tyrant, and after having perpetrated great cruelties on the people he was at last vanquished and slain by a neighboring chieftain; some say by Fionn Mac Cumhail. He was buried in a standing posture, but the very next day he appeared in his old haunts, more cruel and vigorous than ever. And the chief slew him a second time and buried him as before, but again he escaped from the grave, and spread terror through the whole country. The chief then consulted a druid, and according to his directions, he slew the dwarf a third time, and buried him in the same place, with his head downwards; which subdued his magical power, so that he never again appeared on earth. The laght raised over the dwarf is still there.

  • Kielty Inks are formulated to be free of ethanol and methanol and are non acidic.
  • Kielty Inks have exceptionally low toxicity compared to other brands which are acutely toxic (skull and crossbones symbol), you would need to drink our ink to notice negative effects.  Even then it would take multiple bottles to do any real harm, its not exactly tasty, so unless you have screws loose you would not be drinking it.  Yes, I tasted it.  I am a scientist.... with screws loose apparently.
  • Kielty Inks are Alcohol Inks that are 100% handmade in Dublin, Ireland with soul and love.

IMPORTANT INTERNATIONAL BUYERS:

Kielty Ink is not responsible for what customs do in your country.  Kielty Ink makes and ships orders with appropriate paperwork.  If it is held in customs for whatever reason it is standard protocol that they contact the consignee (you).  If you need assistance you can contact me, however the onus is on you once your order has been shipped.  If you are charged import duties this is outside my control and you should factor that in when placing your order or make relevant inquiries to ensure you have the correct information.  US customers most commonly need a TSCA declaration, I complete and send one with every US shipment.  You may still be contacted to provide one as they may not realize that there is already one completed in the document pouch of the shipment.
