What a gorgeous color ink

What a gorgeous color ink. The green is so smooth and glides on the paper so effortlessly. I immediately filled it in my Esterbrook Botanical Garden fine nib pen and began writing. I am over the moon happy with this ink.

Such a great color. Some nice shading and good depth. Good flow and seems to look great on white and cream colored paper.

Great in a Lamy Safari

I'm just getting started trying new inks - put this in my Lamy Safari with an EF nib about a week ago and its been a real pleasure to write with. The color is an olive/Reseda green. It doesn't dry out if I leave it for a day or two, and it writes well on 20# cheap copy paper.

A very nice green

A very nice green. not a dull olive green. It remindes me of the peridot greens in Folkart acrylic paints that truly look gold-green. I plan to use it to try illuminating along with gouach for calligraphic lettering on the right paper. It will feather a bit on rougher or water color papers which aren't the ideal support for this type of ink , but it still held up on the smoother back side of a sheet of watercolor paper with a dip pen. As a fountain pen ink I really enjoy it. Hope you will too.

A lovely warm green ink

I love this gold-green color--it creates lovely light and dark variations based on how the ink pools when you write letters.

A comfortable Green

This was one of those inks that I purchased as a sample with some others. I wasn't even in the market for a green ink but somehow this one grew on me and really became comfortable using it quite a lot! Now that I want some more of it, you're out of stock, so I'm glad I got a full bottle when I did.

Great flow

I've had this ink on my wish list for quite a while and I'm so pleased I bought a bottle of it. Have now had it inked in several different pens, the flow in each of them has been great.

A pretty, but temperamental, ink.

This is a lovely color ink that flows well and has a bit of nice shading. However, it requires good paper and long time to dry. Not the best ink for notes or quick writing. It's a letter writing ink for me.

Prettiest olive green ink

This is probably my favorite color among inks that I've tried so far. It has very nice shading, and even halo (at least under certain circumstances). I would probably recommend using it in a fairly wet pen on very non-absorbent paper for the best effect. The color is especially striking when highly saturated. So far I have not had any issues with flow or with cleaning. Seems pretty low maintainance.On the more negative side, the ink is not at all water resistant and tends to feather and spread on low quality papers, but I can pretty easily look past that. The attached art was done with a Noodler's Ahab pen and modified Noodler's untipped art nibs on Rhodia and (I think) Tomoe River paper respectively. I included an ink blot on a napkin, because it's really quite beautiful the way that the light blue separates from the gold color. I think it helps to explain the way that the ink looks on the page.

The vintage green of my dreams

My 3rd fav colored ink of greens in 2021. More golden green as the name implies and warm toned compared to Noodlers Army Green. Definitely green but gives it almost a vintage feel.

Great Color but dries in pen

This is one of the great green colored inks that i have used. Have not seen anything like this one. The only drawback with this is that this ink dries up in pen.

Love this ink!

Big fan of Noodlers inks, but this ink is special. There is great nuance to it. Rich and varied. And stunning in a clear pen.

Great color- wet

I love the color, it has great shading and is a perfect earthy green. It is pretty wet and so bleeds through on cheaper paper and can make lines a bit thicker than they would be with a dryer ink as well. It is very not water resistant, even sweaty fingers smudges it so that is a bit of a bummer, but it makes it great for shading/drawing with. Overall pleased with my purchase, but I like R&K scabiosa and salix more.

Such a Calming Tone of Green

I absolutely love this ink because of its soothing tone of green that reminds me of matcha green tea. The shading it leaves on the paper has a wonderful range and after trying it in a few of my pens, I feel like it has worked the best in my Loclen Electa Brass with the medium nib. Something about the warm tones with the green just works for me.

One of my very favorites

I am a teacher and have to grade a lot - one of the ways I make it less mind-numbing is to use nice tools (a fountain pen and good ink). I just love Alt-Goldgrun. The color is unique, elegant, and lights up the page. It makes even my boring old writing look beautiful and artistic, and it makes any task seem more pleasurable. I got this ink as a sample and immediately upgraded to the full bottle; the more I use this color, the more I love it.

Goldgrun

This colour suits me down to the ground as I enjoy a lot of basic shade inks with subtle accents I have other variations of this shade but find this one superiorthe ink flows well does not bleed as do a lot of green base colours and dries reasonably quickly

Lovely, natural green ink

I love the greenish/yellow hue of this ink. Very readable, yet imbued with a playful vitality.

Antique et tres romantique

I love this ink! Very well priced, very vintage looking. I like how you get variable color shading when you are writing, I think that adds somehow to the sensual experience of writing with a fountain pen. Looks professional enough that you wouldn't need to feel embarrassed that you are not writing with black or blue ink.

Loved it!

I have very much enjoyed this new ink! Not too light, but the perfect color for my Lamy Studio Olive pen

A nice bright olive color with lovely shading.

I purchased a bottle of Rohrer & Klingner Alt-Goldgr�n as an addition to my green ink pallet. I was looking for a brighter green that was not too fluorescent looking, and this one fits the need. The olive color also happens to be a nice match to my olive-colored Lamy Studio. This is not for me an everyday ink, but when the mood or occasion arises for a lighter green hue, this is a lovely, somewhat unique color, and it is not overly expensive.Because the ink shades significantly, the actual color on the page will depend, among other things, on how wet the pen is. With a really wet writer (e.g., a Pelikan with a broad nib), the base color is a medium olive that shades nicely lighter in the yellow direction, but is still distinctly green. With a somewhat drier writer (e.g., Lamy Studio with a fine nib), the base color is definitely lighter, and shades to a light gold-green (hence the name, maybe? ) that is almost too light for me. If you are one who likes to underline/highlight/sketch with multiple shades, this ink also plays well, color-wise, with Pelikan Edelstein Olivine. Between those two inks, one can achieve greens from almost black to almost yellow. This color is probably not for everyone, but if it seems to speak to you, I would recommend giving it a try. If you are not sure, get a sample before committing to a whole bottle, but if you think you might like it, at least give it a try. It is definitely something different.
