Violet and brilliant brown are shades no cheap bottle offers, which is the only sound reason to spend on imported ink.

The 30 ml Pelikan 4001 violet bottle, its label carrying Violett over violet along with the 30 ml and 1 fl. oz markings.
Description
Nobody spends Rs. 900 on a bottle of blue ink — blue costs Rs. 50 at the shop on the corner. What you buy Pelikan 4001 for is a colour you cannot get otherwise, and the two listed here are exactly that: violet and brilliant brown. Both are writing inks, not craft inks, so they behave properly in a fountain pen while looking nothing like the usual page.
Violet is the annotation colour. Teachers marking scripts, editors working over a draft and students colour-coding revision notes all want something that stands apart from black text and from the red already used for corrections. It reads clearly under a desk lamp and photographs well, which matters if your marked-up pages get shared as photos.
Brilliant brown is the one calligraphers and sketchers reach for. It gives a warm, aged line that suits envelope addressing, journalling, botanical sketching and anything meant to look like an old document rather than a printout. On cream or ivory paper the difference between brown and black is not subtle.
The two are priced differently: violet is Rs. 900 and brilliant brown is Rs. 1,200, both for the same 30 ml bottle. The bottle is squat, faceted glass with a sloped front panel and a heavy screw cap, and each label carries the colour name in German with the English underneath — Violett over violet, Brillant-Braun over brilliant brown — alongside the 30 ml and 1 fl. oz markings.
Pelikan produces 4001 in a wider spread of colours than these two, and one of the photographs on this page shows that range so you can see where violet and brown sit against turquoise, black, brilliant red, royal blue, blue-black and dark green. Only the violet and brilliant brown 30 ml bottles are listed here — the others appear in the photograph for context, not as stock.
A bottle needs a pen that can draw from one, so this suits converter pens, piston fillers and eyedropper pens. A cartridge-only pen needs a converter fitted first. Send us a photograph of the open barrel on WhatsApp if you are not sure which yours is.
The Safencia price starts at Rs. 900 for the 30 ml violet bottle with Cash on Delivery across Pakistan, and the brilliant brown is Rs. 1,200. WhatsApp confirms which colour is in stock, your city and the delivery charge before dispatch.

FAQs
Which Pelikan 4001 colours are actually in stock here?
Violet at Rs. 900 and brilliant brown at Rs. 1,200, both in the 30 ml bottle. The photograph showing eight bottles is there to place these two against the wider 4001 range — the other shades in that frame are not listed.
Why does brilliant brown cost more than violet?
The two Pelikan 4001 shades are simply priced differently at source, at Rs. 1,200 and Rs. 900 for the identical 30 ml bottle. There is no difference in bottle size or quantity between them, so the choice comes down to which colour you need.
What is violet ink actually used for?
Marking and annotation, mostly. Pelikan 4001 violet separates cleanly from black body text and from the red a teacher has already used, which makes it the practical third colour for scripts, drafts and colour-coded revision notes.
Is brilliant brown good for calligraphy?
Pelikan 4001 brilliant brown is one of the usual choices for it. The warm tone suits envelope addressing, journalling and botanical sketching, and reads as an aged line rather than a printed one — especially on cream or ivory paper.
Will Pelikan ink work in a pen from another brand?
Yes. 4001 is standard bottled fountain pen ink and fills any converter pen, piston filler or eyedropper pen. A pen that only accepts cartridges needs a converter fitted before it can draw from a bottle.
Why are the labels written in German?
Pelikan prints the colour name in German with the English translation beneath — Violett over violet, Brillant-Braun over brilliant brown. The bottle also carries 30 ml and 1 fl. oz markings, so nothing important is only in German.
Does a coloured ink stain a pen more than blue?
Saturated shades such as Pelikan 4001 violet can leave a light tint in a clear feed or converter over time, though it is cosmetic rather than damaging. Flushing the pen with clean water when you change colours keeps the next ink true and prevents muddy mixing.
Can I pay cash on delivery for Pelikan 4001 Ink 30ml in Pakistan?
Yes. Cash on Delivery is available across Pakistan, including Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, Rawalpindi and many other cities.
How fast is delivery in Pakistan?
Orders are confirmed on WhatsApp before dispatch. Delivery usually takes 3-5 working days in major Pakistani cities, depending on courier route and city.
