Just too pale to be legible for my eyes

I thought the color looked like I would like it, but it turns out it is just too pale for me to be able to read it, even under strong light on bright white paper.

Herbin Gris Nuage - Ink Sample

A light ink that created a smooth writing experience from both my dip pen and a Kaweco Liliput, my everyday pen. I write with a EF nib that produced a very light gray with a distinct lilac cast.

didn't flow at all in my TWSBI580

This ink skipped, railroaded and hard started in my TWSBI 580. Noodlers Lexington Grey, HOD and Black flow great. I'll try it in another pen and see how things go.

Pefect Ink

I used the sample from my subscription at work while taking notes for a meeting. Both client and boss were quite impressed with the pen and the ink. I will definitely purchase a bottle!

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I fill my fountain pen from an ink sample vial? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

The technique depends on the fountain pen's filling mechanism.

Check out our blog post on How to Fill a Fountain Pen from an Ink Sample Vial, or watch the video here:

How much writing can I really do with 2ml? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

We find that usually you can get 2 good fills for a typical converter with our ink samples, or one good fill with a large capacity piston-filling pen.

How much writing you can do depends on you more than anything else. It mostly depends on how big or small you write, and the nib size you’re using. We recommend experimenting with different nib sizes to find what works best for you.
