Diamine Bottle Ink Emerald 222 30ml

I love writing with fountain pens. A buddy recommended this color to me and I had to get some. Glad I did, because the color is indeed very well balanced. The green is like fresh mowed grass, but it's dark enough to be used every day. I've tried it in a few pens and so far no issues. Happy with it!

The media could not be loaded.  Nice ink. Bought it for my fountain pen which has a medium nib, but when writing with it, I couldn't tell at all its was "oxblood". Looked black. I wouldn't say anything wrong with the ink, but if you're writing with, say a fountain pen where the lines are thin, you might not be able see it as "oxblood". Would need something that writes with thicker lines.

Ink quality is good although I was slightly disappointed by the color's vibrancy, or lack of vibrancy.It appears to be a fairly common ink to purchase, have seen alot of demo's and examples that used this particular ink & color... They all seemed to have been a little more vibrant, not much more, just a bit.I get that monitor settings can be a factor, camera settings, etc.... but most other ink's i've recieved are more in line with what I've watched.Other than that, it's a good running ink by a good company

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!

Using this ink for urban sketching class. The ink is water soluable and that is a plus for how I will use it in my fountain pen

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.

Diamine sample sizes are a good way to try out a color before committing to a larger bottle. I’m still choosing between Diamine Sepia and Ancient Copper for a brown ink. Might end up using both.

This is a very nice, dark red/scarlet ink which has worked well using a Kaweco Sport fountain pen with EF nib in my Dingbats Bullet Journal for daily writing when I switch to it. (I tend to switch inks when I run dry and have been comparing readability as I go along. This ink is quite readable, not “jarring” on the eyes, and if you prefer a red this may be a good choice for you. It’s not very waterproof, so keep that in mind, but it depends on your needs (or if hot and you have sweaty hands). All of the Diamine inks seem to be of very high quality.

I have many Diamine inks. I love the richness (sheerness if you insist) of the range of colours and the ease with which they flow. Never too effusive, pens from Montblanc to Jinhao perform beautifully with this on board. Haven't tried their twinkle inks, but Blaze Orange, for instance, coruscates with 'pied beauty' anyway. My present purchase, Meadow, exceeded my expectations. A lovely, fresh, vibrant green redolent of Summer to come. In these difficult times a little borrowing of future brightness is a gift.

The colour of the Meadow green ink is lovely, just what you would expect from the title. The only downside I found with the 30 ml bottle is that it is a little trickey filling your pen because the bottle is plastic and very light weight so liable to tip over if you are not careful. Someone suggested sticking the bottle down with a piece of blue tack before attempting to fill your pen.

Love diamine inks. Great quality for the price and work well with dip pens. They're also highly water soluble, which suits my purpose, as they are easily washed off the page if you make a mistake. Meadow green is a perfect description for this zingy but natural grassy green.

Diamine Meadow hat einen schönen grasfarbenen Ton. Nicht so neonfarben, wie im Verkaufsbild, eher wie frische Grasflecken.Ich habe die Tinte jetzt seit einigen Wochen in einem günstigen Jinhao 992 und für Mitschriften benutzt. Wenn der Füller länger lag, gab es ab und zu etwas Anlaufschwierigkeiten und nach längerer Liegezeit im Füller sind die ersten Zeilen deutlich dunkler als mit frischer Tinte.Sie ist, wie alle helleren Tinten, etwas anstrengender zu lesen bei langen, kleingeschriebenen Texten, daher würde ich sie nicht unbedingt für Mitschriften in Schule oder Uni empfehlen.Da die Schattierung schon bei der ausprobierten mittleren Federbreite sehr hübsch ist, würde sie sich bestimmt gut in Verbindung mit breiten oder flexiblen Federn machen.

A beautiful green akin to Mehendi Green. A joy to write with this ink.Just go for it.
