I have now tried 5 inks from Standardgraph. I have been very impressed by them all. As normal, some of the colours are better than others, and this is a lovely, light to mid blue, with some subtle shading.


Lovely colour


Very well behaved


Nicely lubricated, nib flows well


No problems with feathering, show/bleedthrough


No hard starts, skips


Very easy to clean




The ink comes in 30ml bottles, and is priced at £5.65 with free p&p from ebay seller Seitz-Kreuznach. I have made multiple purchases from this seller, and each has went well.

Standardgraph make very well behaved in, with some nice and some very nice colours. This is one, to me, of the very nice colours, and could be compared with Pelikan Edelstein Topaz, although this is slightly greener. Everything about this ink is good, no feathering or show/bleedthrough. There is some water resistance, and dries super fast at 8 seconds. There is some shading to this ink, up to a medium nib the shading is subtle, in a broad or italic the shading increases to a very nice level.

Hope you like the review.

Cheers,

Bud.
