A deep, dark, serious green

A shade or two darker than Jane Austen. It appears nearly black on Tomoe River paper.

bought it for the name!

So far I like it. It is a lovely grey and it looks like it is waterproof so I can use it for drawings where I add watercolor.

Beautiful light olivine but not grey

I bought this ink thinking I would get a greenish grey, but in my Pelikan M205 M, the ink is a light Olivine. When I put the ink in my Platinum Procyon M, it was also a light Olivine. Maybe if you are writing with B or stubs, the ink would appear darker and be a closer match to the swatch on Goulet's product page. I love the ink, but the colour was not at all what I expected.

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.

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.
