Diamine80ml Royal Blue fountain pen ink bottle

This ink deserves a 5-star rating because it has a rich blue with just a tinge of purple, and so is perfect for writers who find Royal Blue ink a little too purply. Those who like purple may be a little disappointed, but this is more blue than purple and so should be considered a very different ink. It appears deep and rich, and flows very smoothly, And is just the right amount of wtness so it dries reasonably quickly. It is not too watery and so does not feather.

I bought this Royal Blue on a whim, having enjoyed this make's Blue-Black. It's been a revelation - lovely for note taking. Have been using for a few months I'm my Lamy Studio (medium nib), and it glides across the page, no feathering or fading, and is delightful to read back.The volume of ink in the bottle is phenomenal, plus the large square base makes recharging my pen a secure and simple process.As someone who's been averse to blue inks in general, this is a really satisfying shade to see emerge from my nib, but also more importantly to read back afterwards.Would buy again in a heartbeat!

This flows smoothly without smudging and has high colour quality. No hesitations in recommending it.

Thought I'd give this a go but, compared to my Mont Blanc ink, that it is replacing, it is very thin and watery. I won't be using it. The ONLY good thing is the colour, which is quite pleasant. You get what you pay for.

I’ve not used Diamine ink before, but am very impressed with how it flows when writing. It’s very quick to dry too which is good, preventing transfer when closing a book immediately after writing.

The ink colour quite matches with the summer sky, and is a positive colour to uplift on a cloudy day. It is non-waterproof ink, which is good for fountain pens as they generally don't clog over long use and is easy to remove from hands. The ink is a bit on wetter side, which is also dependent if the paper is absorbent. On absorbent paper, it dries quickly. The seller send the product within the expected time frame, which is great. Happy with the purchase.

Bought this ink after my last purchased ink was awful and gave up after a using for few weeks. This ink flows lovely onto the paper and does not dry up in the nib! Love it!

Exceilent for my wife's new fountain pen

J'ai acheté cette encre bleue pour changer de mon Blue Royal Pelikan 4001 qui marche formidablement bien dans mon Duofold mais que je trouvais un peu léger en terme de teinte. La Royal Blue donne une couleur bleue plus profonde et je suis absolument ravi du résultat. On peut dire que cette encre deviendra mon Royal Blue de base, remplaçant même l'encre MB que j'affectionne aussi. J'ai chargé il y a deux jours un Diplomat Excellent A + avec cette encre et avec une simple plume M en acier j'obtiens un super sentiment de glisse sur mes notebooks car j'écris énormément au stylo plume. En outre, le rapport qualité prix est exceptionnel, car le flacon fait tout de même 80 ml. D'une manière générale, j'utilise de plus en plus les encres Diamine, notamment les versions exclusives destinées au marché germanique qui sont des encres complexes fortement saturées avec iridescence sur du bon papier. Je recommande vivement l'utilisation de cette encre qui correspond aussi à un usage administratif, même si sa résistance à l'eau n'est pas excellente, mais dans ce cas j'utilise la Mystery Black de Montblanc. Pour la petite histoire, cette encre Diamine a été utilisée par les présidents américain et russe (Obama et Medvedev pour signer la première mouture du traité de maîtrise des armements New START : un très beau palmarès pour Diamine.

Diamine steht für tolle Tinten. Das vergleichsweise weit verbreitete Königsblau ist richtig schön, trocknet schnell ( Linkshänder) und deckt gut trotz EF Goldfeder von Graf von Faber Castell. Ich weiss nicht, ob die Tinte „killerbar“ ist, da ich das nicht benötige. Das hier ist sicher eine Alternative zu Königsblau 4001 von Pelikan.
