Very pleasant ink. Great flow and a lovely rich color. Works great in my crystal Platinum preppie with <03> nib.

I... want to like this ink

I have to say my sample does not compare to the images. The pictures show shading with a Lamy XF nib; I have the same nib and paper but not an inkling of the same shading or colors. With a fat, wet nib, it will shade somewhat but not to the colors depicted. It's darker, less saturated, and ultimately less rich. Imagine a muted version of the picture with less shading and vividness. It's a good color - maybe your color! - but it's going to compare to the vividness or the similar dark Diamine blues. As you already know, Goulet Pens was awesome.

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.
