Standardgraph Blueberry

[vans4444]

I noticed that there doesn't seem to be any reviews of Standardgraph ink. So even though I do not feel I really have the knowledge to produce an ink review, I thought I would have a go, in the hope that someone more knowledgeable than I would follow with something better.

 

I found a site on eBay that sells 22 different Standardgraph ink colours. This one is Blueberry. It is similar to a colour I mixed using Pelikan Violet, plus Platignum Blue.

 

This is a well mannered ink, with a good but not excessive flow.

 

While the white paper looks grey in this photo, the colours are a well represented except perhaps that they are very slightly lighter and bluer than the original (but it is marginal).

Here is a simple comparison of Standardgraph Blueberry and Forget Me Not Blue, using a no name very toothy dip pen

I like how the ink looks like.

It seems to me that it's a bit dusty, is it truth? If it's so I like it even more!

 

Thanks for the review.

Hi, which ebay site sells Standardgraph ink? The Forget Me Not Blue looks like a lighter shade of Baystate Blue.

This is where I brought my Standardgraph inks LINK

 

Be careful, they incorrectly calculated my combined postage cost, but then gave me a refund without any problems.

Yes a little dusty but not as much as Diamine Prussian Blue. Perhaps Prussian blue with a little extra red making it slightly more violet.

I have bought with that seller in ebay a couple of pelikan pens in the past and the service has always been excellent and very kind. H/She is very attentive. Not affiliated, just a satisfied customer. I was searching for info regarding this brand of ink, nice to see this seller has supplies.

Have you tried the Silver?

 

Looks interesting.

watch out, the silver is not for use in fountain pens.

here is another source for standardgraph inks which might be cheaper but I dont know how much he charges for shipping outside Germany. One would have to ask

They are cheaper from missing-pen.de, but the postage may be more.
