About 7 years ago, I bought these with the intention of making herbarium ballpoint pens, but I never got around to it. I opened one bag and tested the ink to see if it would write. I tried a few, and the ink seems to work. I'm also including replacement ink cartridges. These are gel ink. The oil is unopened. The dried flowers are also unopened. The first photo shows everything. This is a set. I'm not sure how to use the glass dome in the seventh photo, but I think it can be used as shown in the eighth photo. I believe these items are about 7 years old, so please understand this before purchasing. Thank you.
