Simple and perfect

A nice medium olive green with some life to it. Coincidentally the exact color of my Kaweko Perkeo in Jungle Green so I had to test it out in there, and it flows beautifully from the fine nib and dries quickly. I think my Perkeo might've found a permanent match, and will be putting in long hours with me this fall in school!

Lovely!

I really enjoyed using this ink. It was a lovely colour and had great flow.

A deep, serious green

A shade or two lighter than Charles Dickens, and still a deep, serious green. This one is noticeably green, whereas Dickens appears nearly black on some papers.

Gorgeous Vintage Green

Love this color. I use this in my Twsbi Eco for journaling. Bought a sample to try, will buy again.

Very Nice Hunter Green

I really like this color. It is a nice hunter green color that is very classy. Very appropriate for being named after Jane Austen. It hasn't been giving me any problems in my Pilot Metropolitan. If you are looking for dark green that has a slightly vintage look this would be a good choice.

FAQ about Ink Samples

How do I fill my fountain pen from an ink sample vial? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It 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.

How much writing can I do with 2ml of ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

It really depends on how big or small you write, and the nib size you’re using. We find that usually you can get 2 good fills for a typical converter with our Ink samples, or one good fill with a piston-filling pen. How much writing depends on you more than anything else, so we recommend experimenting with different nib sizes to find what works best for you. 

What is shading, sheening, or shimmering ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Shading - A common (and often desired) result of a fountain pen ink pooling in certain parts of a letter when writing, so that the color and saturation of the ink appears different within a single letter or word. This characteristic cannot be achieved with ballpoint or rollerball pens and is a very appealing aspect of fountain pen use for those particularly drawn to all the pretty ink colors.

Sheen - Characteristic of a fountain pen ink where when ink pools another color can be seen on top of the ink, especially when looked at in different light angles using certain paper types. There is no way to guarantee an ink will sheen, but using a larger nib on a pen will help obtain sheening results in your writing.

Shimmering - Fountain pen ink that has small particles of glitter mixed in.

Is shimmering ink safe to use in fountain pens? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Yes! Shimmering ink is a great way to add some flare to your writing. We have found that a larger nib will showcase more shimmering particles while writing, but you can use any nib size and shimmering ink. All the ink we sell is safe for use in fountain pens.

You can learn more in our blog: How to Write with Shimmering Ink.
