Diamine Registar's Ink

Recommended Posts

Now based in Liverpool, the history of Diamine dates back to 1864 when the company was founded by T Webster and Co. in London. The business moved to Liverpool in 1925 and T Webster and Co. changed its name to Diamine in 1964.

 

Diamine now produces one of the largest ranges of fountain pen ink and fountain pen cartridges as well as the famous Registrar's Ink for permanent records.

Diamine offers amazing variety of colors.

Registar's ink has very good flow characteristics. It's waterproof. It tends to stain the nib, so if it bothers you, you may want to think twice before using it in your precious pens :) What about the color? Personally - I dislike it. On the other hand there's so depth to it.

As imaginative & thorough as ever, thank you Visvamitra for posting this.

Though I often do not use this ink because it darkens so, it is still one of my favourite IG inks. I prefer Registrar's blue/black where black ink may be appropriate.

Keep your fine ink reviews coming.

I bought sample and have missed it ever since it ran out.

 

Had to do a double take on your writing samples, this time. Nice passage.
