A lovely dark green but sometimes it's too dark

I think this ink is excellent. The only reason I didn't give it a perfect 5 stars is due to versatility. I think you'll find that on some papers, it looks so dark that the green barely comes through. But who knows, you might disagree. I guess there's only one way to find out - get a sample!

Nice

Surprisingly I like it. Overall a nice ink color.

dull

I thought this would be an elegant alternative to black. It's uninteresting to me. And dry. I'll give it away. It might look better in a wet pen, like Diamine's Oxford Blue looks in an Eco. I've used it in a #5 stub.

AKA Seaweed Green

In hue, this is mid-green, like pea-green, though somewhat darker, so it ends up as the color of seaweed. I have seen more attractive colors, and this one is perhaps not for me, though interesting to try it. In all respects, it is practical and understated and would make a good everyday ink.

Solid Green Black

Smooth ink with some interesting shading from dark, almost black to darker green. Decent dry time. No bleed-through on my Clairefontaine 90g paper test notebook. I wold use this ink!

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.
