Or wait, the Jester -> Chesterfield
The Copper part, but looking green: Chesterfield Antique Copper?
Doesn't look like it, though

Not Chesterfield

Another hint: The swabs of this ink are misleading... Some sites it is patina green, some steel blue

Not Chesterfield

And here I thought I was being clever...

It is actually quite simpler than you think... I just didn't want it to be discovered after two guess. Ptero knows something about that so do I

[Yazeh]

Another hint: This ink is not your usual run of the mill ink. It has some unusual properties

[Yazeh]

It is supposed to have fluorescent qualities with UV light... I'm not sure if I were able to capture it

That wasn't so difficult was it?

Oh man, that wasn't easy, well done Yazeh!

Goodness! Do many geeks actually own all these inks to be able to guess? I max out below 40 bottles and some samples, and beyond those (all of which have been posted in this thread long ago), I'm at a loss.

It might have been easier if you hadnt started by saying:

It's one of those obscure brands that no one has heard from

I honestly thought it would be easy.....

It's an unusual ink. I nearly bought a whole bottle... What I really like about it, is it's dry time and to my surprise it's muted colour... I never thought I would like muted colours
Plus it doesn't hurt that it's bullet proof....

Don't forget it's combination of many geeks

Hi Yazeh,

well, too much uv to blue light came into the camera to see the fluorescence.

If you have a yellow or orange filter like it is used for film based black and white photography at hands,
the image would show fluorescence much better. They remove the UV, violet and blue.
Just put it onto your camera.

An example:
Diamine Autumn Oak

No filter:

Thanks Jens. I don't own a camera but I much appreciate the explanation
As I didn't have a UV flashlight, I tried, thanks to google creating a black light by putting a double blue filter (those used in lighting) and painted a transparent tape purple with sharpie. It sort of created the effect, and I managed to see the fluorescence but my crappy phone camera couldn't pick it up....
But I believe I have an orange filter, from my film days, lying around somewhere, and I would give a second try with my top of the line setup and report

I guess I own more than 40 (never counted it, as having a high number in mind afterwards only would confirm with a hard fact what I already know.... that I own way too many inks which I will not be able to consume in several lifetimes).

But most of the time I do not own the inks I‘m guessing (when already checked the ones I own).
I look at ink comparisons and reviews and compare it with the photo of the mystery ink.
