Lovely ink, glad I tried it

Like all Goulet orders I've placed, this was exceptionally well packed, arrived promptly, and with good communication on status along the way. The ink sample went into a TWBI ECO-T w/ an EF nib. No problems with flow or starting. Medium flow and quick dry time. The ink is a nice red with distinct orange undertones. I use this pen w/red ink for marginalia and copy editing marks. Great shade for this, distinct and visible but not too loud.

A bit light and faded

In general I have a very high opinion of Edelstein inks and regularly use several different ones. This one, however, looks a little light and washed out for my taste. It doesn't appear to have enough color.

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.

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.
