I found this in a local online store. I know nothing about this brand. Maybe someone knows.

It says "hand-made in Germany" on the bottle. I was tempted by the yellow-green label and I like the square bottle, so I bought it even when there is no swab of it available. Turns out it's the generic kind of "emerald green" that I dislike. :unsure: Well, at least I have the lovely bottle.

Sample

Although I don't like the colour, it flows well. Comparing with R&K Smaragdgrün (the bottom one), the R&K one is less saturated and of a paler colour.

Totally ditto!

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

I've just received my Diamine Flower Set and I can confirm they are the same bottles. Under the bottle there are the words "Vetrerie Italiane Foresta". With a bit of searching I found this glass company, and you can also see many European ink bottles are from them: De Atramentis, Montblanc, Callifolio, Diamine...

      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..

      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
