Last Of The Organics Studio Inks

My favorite is Potassium Lavender. I might have to spring for the 16oz even though I just purchased 3 bottles of J. Herbin's 1670 Stormy Grey.

I got a big bottle of Whitman. Whoo! But someone grabbed my teal. I was real close to getting Khaki, but just couldn't quite pull the trigger. If anyone has a sample of the true teal or the khaki, I would like one for my sample book. (I did get the limited edition white box inks.)

 

I am sad about the lack of Blue Merle and Fitzgerald.

Damn.. I just saw this.... I would have LOOOOVED to grab the Khaki...

 

 

If anyone is interested in sharing a generous sample... I can provide exclusive and hard to find inks samples (Sailor LE, KWZI, Parker Penman..) :lol:

Just logged on to Anderson. OK, maybe an 8 oz. bottle of Mark Twain was overkill but I love that color. And if I was paying shipping anyway why not get the Marie Curie's Radium. Any advice for keeping an 8 oz. bottle of ink fresh as a daisy?

Keep away from heat and sunlight. Store upright. You might want to consider decanting/filling into a smaller bottle that you use to fill pens.

 

I think the biggest issue over long periods of time might be evaporation of the water. But we're talking many years here. Keep the lid tightly closed obviously.

 

Others may have more useful suggestions than mine.

With OS inks, be cautious about potential contamination. My two complaints - too dry (that is not how most people feel) and they needed more biocide. If you live in a mold friendly zone (ask SeeksAdvice about the Dakotas) then, you should add phenol to your entire collection. Other than that, you should have have these inks for decades if you hoard them, months if you write a LOT (I vote you write more and encourage Tyler to make more ink).

Fountain pens are my preferred COLOR DELIVERY SYSTEM (in part because crayons melt in Las Vegas).

Don't know where to start?  Look at the Inky Topics O'day.  Then, see inks sorted by color: Blue Purple Brown Red Green Dark Green Orange Black Pinks Yellows Blue-Blacks Grey/Gray UVInks Turquoise/Teal MURKY

Thanks for the advice. I do have a smaller bottle and I will refill that and use it to refill pens. And write a lot. And beg Tyler to make more ink.

Hi Amber, could you please advise how much phenol to add to a bottle? I am getting some manganese, boron and Charles Darwin blue black off ebay. Hoping to store them for a while until I finish off the noodlers samples.

 

Thanks.

Any news on the return of these inks? I missed out on Organics Studio whilst on a hiatus from FPN, and I could tear out my hair in frustration. :gaah:

You can still get some of the popular colors at Anderson Pens, Vannes... and maybe somewhere else.

 

 

If you are looking for a specific one that you can't find, drop by the classified and request it. I am sure someone will be willing to share or even sell you a bottle.

I was looking at Anderson Pens just a short time ago. :) I'm definitely going to acquire a bottle or two. I'm just hoping they'll return before I get addicted.

Ordered a bottle each of Jane Austen and Emily Dickinson! It's nice to be addicted to a less popular range of colors, my favorite items wait for me longer :P

I was able to find a large bottle of Mark Twain Halley's Comet Blue at Anderson Pens, and two (small :( ) bottles of Blue Merle at Zeller Writing Co. I so hope they return soon! Both of these look like inks I've been seeking for a long time: a true blue-black that has no green in it, and a well-behaved version of Caran d'Ache Storm.

When my bottle of Walt Whitman Green (with shades of grey) runs out, I will be very sad. I use it only for personal purposes.

Might there be an answer to this question? I have several bottles on their way to me, and I'd like them to last.

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
