Gold and silver markers

Gold and silver markers lay down opaque metallic colour that stands out especially well on black and dark paper, as well as on glass, porcelain, stone, wood and fabric. Here you'll find Uni Posca acrylic markers in 25 Gold and 26 Silver, multipurpose Darwi Marbel markers with tips from 0.7 to 15 mm, Lyra Graduate Mark All permanent paint markers and Kreul markers for glass, porcelain and textiles. A fine tip is enough for greeting cards, wedding place cards and invitations; choose a broader tip for lettering on stone, wood or boards. If you want several shades at once, pick a set that includes gold and silver alongside other colours.

Which gold marker should you choose for paper, glass or fabric?

• Paper, cards and invitations: Uni Posca acrylic markers (PC-1MR, PC-3M, PC-5M), Darwi Marbel and Pébéo 4Artist give opaque coverage even on black card. Pentel K118 is a gel marker with a 0.7 mm tip for writing.
• Glass and porcelain: Kreul Glass & Porcelain Pen Metallic and Darwi Cold Ceramic for mugs, plates and drinking glasses. Find more markers for smooth surfaces among the markers for glass.
• Textiles, leather and trainers: Darwi Tex, Kreul Textile Marker and Kreul Triton for fabric, Darwi Paint On Leather for leather and the Aladine Izink Sneakers set for trainers. The markers for leather and faux leather offer more colours.
• Stone, wood and metal: Kreul Gloss Paint Marker paint markers and Lyra Graduate Mark All permanent markers.
• Windows and boards: Kreul Chalk Marker chalk markers in Golden Glow and Silver Show.

What tip width do you need?

A 0.7 – 1 mm tip suits signatures, calligraphy and small lettering: Uni Posca PC-1MR, Darwi Marbel Extra Fine, Lyra Graduate Mark All in 0.7 and 1 mm, or Kreul Gloss Paint Marker Extrafine in 0.8 mm. A medium 2 – 4 mm tip is practical for drawing and larger lettering, for example Uni Posca PC-5M, Kreul Medium or Pébéo 4Artist. For covering areas, boards and shop windows, choose a chisel or flat tip of 6 – 15 mm from the Darwi Marbel, Uni Posca PC-17K and Kreul XXL ranges.

A single marker or a metallic set?

Pick a single gold or silver marker when you only need one colour for invitations or your marker has just run out. Uni Posca Metallic sets (4 and 8 pieces) and sets from Daler Rowney, Jovi, Darwi Marbel, Montana and Kreul Glass & Porcelain Pen Metallic include gold and silver alongside other colours, while the Kreul Triton Silver & Gold pair contains just those two.
