Sailor Storia Mix Ink Bottle (Yellow - 20 ML) 13-1503-270

• Name / Series: STORiA MiX (??????? “water?based pigment ink”)

• Color / Variant: Yellow (reference code 13?1503?270)

• Volume: 20?ml

• Barcode / EAN: 49?01680?19597?9

• Bottle Dimensions: ~?34?×?34?×?58 mm

• Weight (full bottle): ~?94.0 g

• Packaging: Comes in a paperboard box (~?37.5 × 37.5 × 61 mm)

• Pigment ink (water?based): The STORiA MiX line uses pigment particles suspended in solution, rather than dye molecules. 

• Water resistance: Because it’s a pigment ink, it tends to resist water more than typical dye inks and is less prone to “bleed back” through paper fibers. 

• Mixable line: The “MiX” name indicates that this ink is intended to be mixable with other inks in the STORiA MiX family (e.g. Red, Blue, Orange, etc.) to produce custom hues. 

• Solvent support: To expand the range of blendable colors (especially for pale or bright tints), Sailor provides a dedicated solvent for use with MiX inks.

• Separation caution / compatibility: MiX inks cannot be mixed with conventional STORiA inks (non?MiX). The two lines are separate chemically. 

• The Yellow variant is described in retailer listings as a “smooth?flowing water?based pigment ink” in a bright yellow hue.

• Makkura’s description emphasizes its suitability as a base color for mixing:

  “The STORiA MiX Yellow ink is an ideal base for creating a multitude of shades. By mixing it with the other colors in the range, you can obtain unique and personalized nuances. Pigment inks are resistant to water and light … perfect for important documents, works of art, and all creations that must last over time.” 

• Durable and archival?leaning due to pigment formula (less prone to fading / water damage)

• Creative flexibility with mixing other MiX inks or using the solvent to expand hues

• Compact 20?ml size, useful for trials or limited use

• Elegant, minimal packaging and a usable bottle design for filling fountains

• Settling / particles: Because pigment inks contain suspended particles, they may settle over time or show micro?particles. Users report seeing particles / precipitation in pigment ink bottles. 

• Clogging risk / maintenance: Pens using pigment inks should be flushed regularly, especially if left unused for long periods. Accumulated particles may clog narrow feeds. 

• Not mixable with non?MiX STORiA inks: Must restrict mixing to within the MiX family to avoid chemical incompatibilities. 

• Legibility / contrast: Yellow inks sometimes suffer from low contrast on paper, especially fine nibs or lighter papers. Careful choice of paper and nib width helps. (General for yellow inks in fountain pen context)

1. Shake / mix before use: Gently invert or swirl the bottle to re?suspend pigment particles.

2. Use in pens with generous flow: Pens with wetter feeds or broad nibs handle pigment inks better.

3. Flush thoroughly between colors: Especially when converting to or from pigment inks, to avoid cross?contamination or clogging.

4. Store away from light / heat: To preserve color stability and avoid pigment degradation.

5. Use the MiX solvent if needed: To lighten / tint / dilute mixed colors for paler results.
