Diamine - Fountain Pen Ink, Oxblood 30 ml

Love Diamine ink. There are so many colors! This is a very pretty and fun ink that you can use in public, I think, for a bit of whimsy without being extremely "out there." I've used it for a couple of letters, and the recipients enjoyed it. And it looks better when you spill it on your hands than black does. I appreciate that Diamine inks are much less expensive than most others, and I think you really get value for your money.

Beautiful color and smooth writing. Did not smudge after writing. I used it in 3 different fountain pens. So i recommend this ink color

Diamine Oxblood ink, is a beautiful ink. The color is rich and dark (if it spills on your hand it’ll look like you cut yourself, but on paper, it’s luxurious! A dark, deep burgundy—a true burgundy) and the ink dries rather quickly. I use a glass dip pen with this ink and it has made my writing experience even more of a joy! Now, I’ve used Rhodia and another brand of paper (I’ll edit this review and add the name later on when I remember), and there was no bleeding nor feathering, and little show through. Very high quality ink. I did not test to see if the ink is waterproof but I will check and edit the review when I can. Drying time? I’ll guesstimate under 10 seconds, far quicker than some other inks I’ve worked with. Diamine Oxblood is a well behaved, rich toned, great quality ink. On the other hand, if you are using a dip pen, I recommend you use a ink well (the bottle is small and narrow, so dipping the pen in it isn’t too “comfortable”..), but I this is a sample size, so I will be buying the larger bottle soon! I recommend this item!

Beautiful! Beautiful ink. I am soooo pleased. It is of good texture, weight, and the color is absolutely stunning.

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.

Superseded my expectations! Love the color, love the flow!

Fantastic ink. Smooth, appropriately wet (enough) and relatively fast drying. That is important for me as a lefty. This is perhaps my favorite red ink. Will certainly be buying more.

Fabulous ink. Love the ancient copper color.

Fabulous color and consistency. I really like the sheen and the shade of red.

Like all Diamine inks, this is a high quality ink with superior colour, smooth flowing and consistent in tone and coverage. I regularly run it through a fine and a medium point with no problems whatsoever and have even used it in a chisel tip for some calligraphy detailing. It might not be as cheap as a pack of cartridges from your local supermarket, but it's more economical than some other premium brands - I'm looking at you, Noodlers and J. Herbin - and gives your writing a colourful individuality, even if you only want it to make your signature stand out.

I dislike intensely the plastic bottle. Why not glass for those of us who use fountain pens and dip pens? Why not glass in these times of banishing plastics? The tall, unsteady plastic bottle has made me revert to my other brands ..shame because the colours of this brand are good. For me the bottle is a very important factor when purchasing inks. I re-use the too.

Bought from seller: Penz Solutions It came generously wrapped in bubble wrap, great packaging, no leaks, came in perfect condition. The bottle design and label design is different than the one advertised in the product listing but it is indeed Kensington blue. For the ink review theres a couple youtube videos that you can watch. In my opinion a good Indigo blue ink.

Beste Tinte überhaupt! Fließt sehr gut und trocknet schnell Der Farbton "China Blue" ist einmalig, hebt sich komplett von sämtlichen standard Blautönen ab.
