Ready for something incredible? This artist takes handguns out of circulation, dissolves them in sulfuric acid and handcrafts limited edition writing ink from them. This is such a unique project and it makes for a really special and meaningful gift for a writer or artist who believes in the power of the pen. 

It’s a gallotannate of iron ink, which was a traditional ink used in historical documents ranging from the Middle Ages to the early 20th century. This particular ink is best used with a quill, dip or reed pen, or brush (not fountain pens).
