Customer Reviews
This sample of Noodler's Turquoise ink is awesome. It's a beautiful ink. The color is nice even with a fine nib on my new TWSBI Diamond 580.
A sleeper among the many in this range. People like different things as turquoise/teal range colors. This one is a nice not too blue...not too green... It's hard to decide if it's blue or green leaning on my sample. That's exactly what I like in a teal range...with a wetter medium throw stubs you can get elements of both in shading. It has a really nice saturation while remaining very bright. In water the blues/greens shove right off but theres a grey/charcoal element that leaves a very legible text behind. So it's not really water resistant but is highly recoverable. I like J. Herbin Bleu Austral (much more blue leaning) Diamine Aurora Borealis (similar but darker less vibrant not as bright) but for the money and curb appeal this is a value leader...while you won't find a truly water resistant ink in this range... This is extremely recoverable.
I initially put this in a fine nibbed pen, it was 'nice'. I have since put the remaining amount into a Lamy with a medium nib - and the experience of this ink is much improved. The colours and shading really need a thicker nib to show the qualities.
I bought the Massachusetts 54 and Turquoise. This one was, by far, my favorite. The color is dark, but light enough to see the color. I am a first time buyer and I really enjoyed this color the most. It's lit. And just so we are all clear, this is my first time using a fountain pen and ink. Therefore, I do not know what saturation, shading and water resistance mean. I just know I would rather this ink because it's fluid and not as sloppy at Massachusetts 54. That's all I know. Peace!
I bought this specifically to use in my Twsbi 580 1.1 stub. Let me tell you, it does not disappoint. The shading is so pretty and it flows like a dream in the stub. It's not a true turquoise, but it is still a fantastic color.
