Fountain Pen Bottled Ink, 30ml - Graphite

This ink is beautiful! I purchased the smaller bottle as I’m new to fountain pens. It’s a deep rich red color with some brownish undertones. When I run out of this ink I’m definitely buying the larger jar.

This is enjoyable ink. It is red without being offensive. I have used this ink in cartridges. This is my first time buying this color in a bottle. It is fountain pen ink, so a good quality paper is helpful. I use a fine point nib and this ink is easy to write with, flows smoothly, low feathering, and the ink is not too thick.

I love this brand ink. The flow of ink is great and glides onto paper effortlessly. Good value, especially compared to other brands of the same quality. The shading with this ink is really nice looking. Dries quickly so I’ve never had it smudge on the fountain pen paper. This brand has many favorites.

I do love Diamine inks. Great colors. Good sizes. Easy to open. (Yes, that's wierd, but I've had other inks that were impossible to open.) Very happy with this ink.

This review is of the color Damson ink. (Amazon, please don't combine reviews of different products on the same page!) Also, the rounded glass bottle shown on the Damson product page is actually the larger bottle and is not what you will receive. If you order the 30ml bottle, it is a plain, tall rectangular plastic bottle. The ink is the same, just less of it, and the bottle isn't as pretty. I was expecting the bottle that is shown on the product page, but for the price, the smaller plain bottle is OK. I really like this ink. It flows well in my fountain pens and is not hard to rinse out of them. It's a pleasing, slightly smoky or muted purple, and a nice change from black and blue inks. Edit for an additional review of Diamine Amazing Amethyst ink: I've also bought a 30 ml bottle of the color Amazing Amethyst ink by Diamine. Amazon sent me an email wanting a review, but it linked to this review of Diamine Damson ink. Again, amazon, please don't combine reviews of different products on the same page!! Grrrr.... Anyway, I like Diamine inks in general and both Damson and Amazing Amethyst in particular. The Amazing Amethyst is a brighter, richer purple, but still dark enough for most uses. In an average or wet-flowing pen, the color is very rich, deep, and jewel-like. I especially like it with a stub nib pen. I have one pen, though, that is a very dry writer, making this ink look washed out (but that pen makes every ink look washed out!) In short, both Damson (muted deep purple) and Amazing Amethyst (rich deep purple in most pens) are great inks.

Excellent product and service! The Poppy Red color is neither too light (pinkish) nor too dark (burgundish).

My favorite ink ever. Beautiful shade. Slightly cheaper than JetPens.com, just by a few cents though. Works out though since I'm a Prime member and shipping was free. Anyway, I love this shade!! I've only had this bottle for about 3 months, but I write with it daily since it's for my diary. Totally buying a bigger bottle soon since I'm almost out! The paper I use is off white so the shade is more of a deep, dark blood color!! Also for reference, my fountain pen of choice for this ink is the Kaweco Sport.

Prussian blue is so tastefully muted, love how it writes. Love the packaging too, no one puts this much detail into branding anymore!
