  • ancient copper, quite satisfied.
Ancient Copper Very attractive ink, it has worked very well in the 5-6 pens that I have tried it in so far. The color is more of a new copper than an ancient copper, with a strong orange tone to it. However, I did notice that it seems darker in the Lamy Safari than in any of the other pens I have used. The nib sizes are similar (fine to x-fine) so I am not sure what is causing the difference in appearance. Dries quickly, some light bleed through on cheap copy paper, you can see there was writing being done, but it wasn't enough to really read it. Overall very happy with this ink, and look forward to trying out other Diamine colors in the future. ... show more

  • New favorite! Rich warm brown ink
This ink flows well, seems to be water resistant enough to suit me, and I love the color. I am not a pen collector or an ink aficionado, I simply like fountain pens and inks. I ordered this thinking that is would be more coppery orange since orange is my favorite color. I planned to use it occasionally in a calligraphy pen. The ink is actually a warm rich brown. Blue black has been my ink color since I rediscovered fountain pens, now I have two favorite colors for regular use. Most of the time I write with a vintage Parker 75 Thuya Laque, fine gold nib, or a new Nemosine Fission, fine German nib. ... show more

  • Works good with ruling pens, too
The ink is (understandably, since it's fountain pen ink) a little messy when used with a ruling pen or other pens you have to dip, but it does work and provides a rich color and tactile texture to the page. It also provides a pretty nice lighter water-color-like effect when smudged, if art is your thing. As a bonus, since I have a nasty habit of placing my hand in recently drawn ink, I have yet to use this specific shade of ink and not be later asked if I was grievously injured, so I gotta think there's some value there for costume makeup. In all seriousness, it's a great ink with really nice texturing and color. ... show more

  • Splendid color!
I have been looking for a TRULY rust-colored/terra-cotta fountain pen ink for 30-odd years. (Pelikan Brilliant Brown was the closest we could get). Then I discovered the wonderful world of Diamine inks, and one of their newer offerings, Ancient Copper. Happy dance! Wish I'd had this color 30 years ago -- then we wouldn't have needed to mix our own. Anyway, it's the perfect color to fill a Copper Esterbrook pen, and it behaves very nicely in that pen. Exactly what I wanted. There are some pens that don't get along with it, I've heard, but it works fine in my vintage Estie J. ... show more

  • Very nice flow. Very quick dry.
Put it in a jinhao pen. It was not flowing well with noodlers or even mont blanc blue. This saved the pen from the trash. It now flows great. It dries faster than private "reserve brand" quick dry too. The color is not copper but more of a brown. I am happy with it because it can be used at the office where the reddish copper color might have been too much color for the office. ... show more

  • Beautiful shade of ink
While this is not water-resistant, it is a gorgeous ink with a lot of shading if used in a broad-nibbed, stub, or flexible pen. Highly recommend if you are looking for a reddish brown with some life in it.

  • Medium - Broad nibs bring out the color of the ink the best
Currently my favorite ink. I have several other colors but, seem to always end up filling a pen with Ancient Copper. A true fine nib represents the color but not like a medium to broad nib does. The ink dries fairly fast if your pen is a wet writer. Not puddles of wet ink - but even then considering the dry time is spot on. I am not into shading or anything like that but again the medium or broad nib and your personal style one may experience the shading effect. I have noticed it when I write. I am not into calligraphy as I am not that talented so my use has strictly been with a fountain pen. ... show more

  • Beautiful ink for Fall, or anytime! Looks great on cream and ivory paper.
Great color, smooth writing, no feathering or bleed through, even on cheaper papers in journals from China. This is my first Diamine brand ink, but it won't be my last!
