Lithographic inks (tusches) from Rohrer & Klingner

In 1892 the lithographer Adolf Rohrer (1850 - 1918) started with the production of special graphic materials in Leipzig. His son Johann Adolf Rohrer junior started with his partner Felix Arthur Klingner in 1907 the company that is still known as Rohrer & Klingner Leipzig-Co.
After the 2nd W.W. Johannes Rohrer (1916 - 1991) joined the company with his chemical knowledge and his special interest in the arts. After his retirement in 1981, he transferred the company to his daughter Veronika Rohrer and his brother in-law Hubert Adamy.
The products are made by hand on the basis of very old recipes.

For drawing on stone, aluminium and zinc plates. They are highly resistant against acids.

Using a highly dispersed pigment that is ideal for the work with the quill, the ink is compounded of the well established ingredients shellac, wax and soap.

While the liquid ink is suited for covering areas completely, the solid ink is excellent for halftones and transitions. The solid ink can be mixed with warm water or a solvent.

Apart from the quill, other eligible drawing utensils are drawing- and reed-pens.
