Using this in a regular pen with a stub nib, this color looked very light. Almost pink.When I used it with a FPR Ultra Flex nib, it looked much darker. Like a normal red color. That nib is very wet and puts down a big volume of ink. Great shading with that nib.

A rich jewel-toned red

I'm loving this ink. Cranberry is one of my favorite colors. This is more red than cranberry, with bright but cool tones. I paired it with the Pineider Avatar demonstrator in Red Wine, and they look great together. Although it feathered the tiniest bit on my cheap work paper, it didn't bleed through and it dried quickly. This may become my go-to red.

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.
