Questions & Answers

Are you sure this ink is suitable for Parker fountain pens?

I say yes! Neither this ink nor its components contain solids. I use it in all the pens I own, including a Parker. It is thin and flows nicely in all of them.

What are the options for an eraser? Could you please direct me to erasable ink bottles we can buy?

It does not come with an eraser. There are no erasable inks I am aware of.

Can you tell me if the ink in this is ?

An ink with a very light, water based consistency that will easily wash out. It is a good paper for journaling, letters, cards, and everyday writing, but it's not suitable for legal documents, etc.

Can this ink be used as a stamp pad ink?

To accomplish that, you need ink for the stamp pad

It is a very beautiful color This is Turkish
5/5

Ok, so I tested this with two different types of pens. The first pen (that's the top half of the page) is a cheap fountain pen that has a twist converter and a good nib (EF). Using this pen, I was impressed at how smoothly the ink flowed. The pros are 1
On copy paper, there must be no feathering. Control of ink is excellent - A very small amount of ink skipping has been detected*3. The pros *Bleeding through is nonexistent*Bleeding through is not possible *Cons 1
The bottom half of the page was done with a traditional dip pen, on lighter blue than turquoise

The color on the top of the page is quite different. In this case, it is a Zebra Comic G nib. Using light pressure, I pressed on the paper. The pros are 1
As you can see, the ink color is darker and more true to color*. Despite the ink flow being smooth, here are the cons 1
It looks like there are quite a lot of feathers on copy paper•2. An influx of ink caused bleeding on the down stroke because of the uncontrolled flow of ink. If you were to use this ink with a fountain pen and not a dip pen, it would make a great ink for everyday use Unless you use this ink for printing, you won't get the true color. It would be perfect for fountain pens if this was darker. However, I use blue-colored pens more often than not. You'll need to have a few decent blue inks around for day-to-day use, such as this one that's a good option for office workers who like to use blue but don't want anything too wild.

The color is beautiful, and the quality of the ink is just as reliable as the others I have purchased.

I've never seen a piece of turquoise so beautiful! My purchases of this shade weren't based on what I thought they would look like, and I have never regretted my choices
5/5

The turquoise is very bright and vibrant Ink in this color is a light shade of turquoise, which is what complements the lovely colors in it. During the upstrokes of the pen, the color is very light, almost so bright you wonder if it might be fluorescent, but on the down strokes of the pen, the colour is a much darker shade of turquoise. When the ink dries, the colors look just as vivid as when it With one of my pens, I keep this ink daily, and I enjoy using it to write.

We'd love to buy more colors from a great ink company
5/5

nothing but praise for this ink. It does not bleed (could be my pen, Namiki Falcon collection), soak into the paper, run, smear, smudge and dries so quickly that is nearly dry in under a second. The program does whatever you tell it to do. There are many other colors available for this ink, including a beautiful turquoise color that looks good in any journal, poem, or story you write. There are many other brands of ink that compare to Namiki Iroshizuku, as well as this product. I only wish the barrel had a small indentation in the middle so that when the ink is low, you can place your pen there to get the last of the ink, like in the Iroshizuku brands, but that's too minor to deduct one You have the option of choosing an alternate color if you do not like this one. There are a lot of colors to experiment with here, and I can't wait to try them all. Ink company that provides great ink.

As of this morning, there are no battles The color Iro is my favorite
5/5

Too many times I have purchased something that promised light blue only to use it and see it dried with a greenish tint. As far as I can tell, this doesn't I get a very deep, rich, beautiful ocean blue that is not a very light or baby blue. It is light enough to be a sky blue, but not that light. Blue is still seen as a light color in this rich shade. There is an expensive Ama-type watch that I have Sky blue is the predominant color and they are almost neck and neck with Amaze A close race between Iro and Iro. This fountain pen clip works well with all of my fountain pens and I'll buy it again because of its beauty and price. In larger nib sizes, it runs a little more wet.

The ink is a lovely shade of blue
5/5

Easily flowed through my Moonman T1 pen (Medius nib), this ink has a rich turquoise color that really stands out. While I've filled a lot of pages with this ink, I've found it to be very bright, and so I prefer it for accent colors. My recommendation is that it should be purchased.

It is finally possible to find an ink that matches my gel pen exactly
5/5

Finding the right ink that matches my gel pen exactly was a real joy. Since I was a child, I used to search for things like this.

A beautiful shade of blue
5/5

Colors like this are my favorites! There are vibrant colors, shades that blend in thoroughly or well, and it perfectly matches my blue journal. I definitely recommend that you don't use this ink in the shower or near water.
