on saleDiamine Enchanted Ocean - 50ml Bottled Ink

Beautiful ink, not only the shimmer, but the shading is great with this ink

This ink looks almost black when used with a japanese fine nib, but when you give it a shake it does have glitter to it. This is less than I was hoping for, but I knew that it was optimistic to expect an extra fine nib, a japanese Pilot VP one no less, to output a shimmernig ink with the intended effects present. That being said, I don't regret the purchase, in fact I have a 1.1 stub nib lamy on the way to see how it does with that. In terms of jamming up the pen, it definitely didn't help, but it can output it down to an empty cartridge no problem if you use your pen daily and don't mind tapping your pen on the paper occassionally if it gets a little dry. Really the reason I wouldn't recommend this for a VP extra fine is just because the ink could look so much better than this pen allows, although it looks like a deep blue with glitter with the VP EF which isn't half bad.Other thoughts: This ink has zero water resistance, even hours later, it flows quite well for what it is, but still I'd only call it medium. Dry time on EF is quick enough for a lefty on everything but very water resistant paper, but I'd suspect it wouldn't be quick enough on a medium nib. One final note is that it's quite difficult to clean out of a pen due to the particles, I'd recommend going with Brian's method of cleaning with a bulb syringe to limit your frustration.All in all it wasn't the perfect ink for my pen, but I didn't expect it to be and it was better flowing than I expected all the same.

I had very good experience with goulet pen. the system works super b also a special thanks to Jeremy Worley for his insterest in our order.

Did careful research on shimmering inks before making this purchase. Ordered this ink and a TWSBI Diamond 580AL broad nib. The broad nib lays down a lovely, creamy line that dries fairly quickly but is saturated enough to show off the shimmer. After using this ink can understand why many reviews recommended broad nibs over fine for shimmer inks. Very satisfied (as I have been with all my Goulet Pen purchases). ;)

I would happily give this ink 5 stars in a heartbeat but for one thing ... it is MUCH darker blue than I expected. I was really expecting more of a turquoise from the pictures, but it is very much a dark blue-with-a-hint-of-green ink, plus the sparkle. I don't know what Diamine did to this ink to make it sparkle and shimmer so bloody well, but it is incredibly great. These are my new favorite inks, and pretty much what I use exclusively in my pens. I've had no real clogging issues, flow is wonderful, and the shine comes through beautifully on good ivory or bright white paper using medium nibs (pretty much all I own).
