Lighter and brighter than in the picture

Ink is well-behaved and dries relatively quickly. However, i found it to edge towards a highlighter color unless my pen was freshly uncapped and depositing a lot of ink on the page. I quite like the shading and think it actually helps ground the color.

Pretty, crisp green

This was a color I bought years ago (back when Goulet was just Rachel and Brian) and I have finally used it in a fountain pen. It's colors are so pretty and dynamic. It ranges from an almost translucent green to a richer blue green. I used it in my fine pilot met, and it is readable, though very light on the up strokes.

J. Herbin Vert Olive

I really like this color and it behave beautifully so far, in every pen I've used. Seems to dry quickly, but ... I didn't really pay attention to that. This is an ink that I will purchase again, when the bottle is empty and give it a 10-thumbs up for color.

Beautiful Green!

This is quality ink by J. Herbin. Unfortunately, it's not very contrasting on cream-coloured paper, so I won't be using it as much as I'd hoped. But I love this shade of green!

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.
