guess the ink!

Rats. I thought sure this was Friedrich von Schiller from de Atramentis. But he was a poet.

It must be deAtramentis Johannes Gutenberg.

Hi!

Not bad!
Gutenberg: Yes
De Atramentis: No

DA Schiller IG looks interesting/similar indeed, but it is not for fountain pens (as you know).

Only after all the clues and heavy Googling, I think I've worked out the ink. But as that hardly equates to "guessing", I shall keep mum. It doesn't seem to be much known outside Germany, as far as I can tell, so you've really find a tricky one here, Jens!

Dear grainweevil,

sure guessing is best, but heavy googling is ok here ;-)
This ink isn't known well here in Germany, too.
It is offered for notaries and others creating official dokuments, a german ESSRI.

I looked at it, but have no idea what it is.

Gutenberg aniline ink, black (schwarz)?

Gutenberg aniline ink, black (schwarz)?

Azkid,

you're so close!
Yes the brand is Gutenberg, it is called Schwarz/black but not the aniline dye variant but the IG version.
The name contains the german word for certificate.

Greetings

Just went through all 363 pages of this thread leading up to now... It has been a long (but enjoyable) road

Best wishes and welcome

Great! I'll post one tonight after work, the only colors I have in pens at work are extremely easy or have been guessed on here before.

Here is the mystery ink. Taken under artificial light, and not an ink that has come up yet.

Hi,

looks like a good emerald - so I guess Pelikan Edelstein Olivine. ;-)

It's not Olivine, in my experience Olivine is notably brown. Not a Pelikan ink.

Ah, ok. Sure Olivine is brownish, except in form of Pelikan ink!
Is it made in Europe?

Hi,

to be honest, I don't have a clue.
American made?

Monteverde California Teal?

[roughly100ladybugs]

Not California Teal, and not American made. I haven't seen any sheen in this ink as I have with California Teal.
