DiamineFountain Pen Ink 30 ml – Colour Palette – 6 x Bottles – Amber, Oxblood, Imperial Purple, Aurora Borealis, Oxford Blue, Meadow

Diamine are quickly becoming one of my favourite inks. Beautiful rich colours. They all write well. My only gripe is I’m not sure if some of the inks were new or had been returned from someone before me as the Imperial Purple and Aurora Borealis bottles were not as full as the rest! I journal and like a change of colour inks when writing, so these small bottles are a good way of affording a collection of various jewel like coloured inks and Diamine do have a lot to choose from! It would be good to have the option to choose your 6 inks from a selection of the same price range though, that way I am not having to buy duplicate inks I already have, to get new colours I don’t have. They arrived quickly, with no breakages or leaks. The colours are pretty much as depicted except the amber is a bit lighter than shown I think.

These flow beautifully and the colours are so vibrant and unusual. I will be working my way through them all with delight. Also like the little plastic bottles – although I suppose that's not very green of me - but they are very portable.

The colours "Oxblood", "Imperial Purple" and "Meadow" are the best, being rich and vibrant. "oxford blue" and "aurora borealis" are not far behind. All write beautifully and fill easily. "Amber" is a real disappointment though: really weak and wishy-washy, barely visible on white paper. Reminded me of writing with lemon juice, and is equally impractical for, you know, reading. Be aware that the dinky little bottles only have a 7mm diameter opening! I fear that I may only got a couple of fills each with my barrel-filling pen because it won't go in to the bottle any deeper!

Worked really well for what I wanted.

Good selection of inks, bought as a gift for someone so would have been nice for them to be in a small box or display pouch rather than just dumped in a bag.

Lush colours and clearly a high quality ink. As with other Diamine inks, these are fantastic.

I've very new to fountain pens and wanted to try a variety of a decent brand of ink without spending a fortune, so this was perfect. I've tried the Aurora Borealis and Oxford Blue so far and both seem really good and colours similar to those shown.Arrived quickly and well packaged, no leaks or anything.

The inks seem decent enough quality, the meadow green is especially pleasing. However, the bottles are gash, cheap plastic, the tops even worse quality. Two have cracked or split within a couple of weeks of purchase. I expected better from this brand, previously I have purchased full sized bottles which have been glass

Im not sure they were listed as water resistant, but i haven't had a fountain pen failure since i started useing these inks, they dont clog and the colors are inspired
