Verde Mediterraneo, the turquoise color of the sea.
Blu Cosmico, universe and constellations in the blue-black night sky inspired this ink.
With the colors of the new fountain pen ink collection, SCRIBO adds the range of pigments for fountain pens to the writing experience in order to give the most original and genuine inspirations.
These water-based inks have been precisely made to offer the best writing experience with our extra flexible nibs.
The nuances are made by plain water-based colors and they are presented in 90 ml (3 fl. oz.) square and stackable bottles for an easy and prolonged writing pleasure.
This is a nice shading blue-green, which leans more toward green than blue. I don't use flex nibs, but I get plenty of shading out of this ink from a medium nib. I haven't noticed ... view morethe red sheen cited by another reviewer, but I haven't used this in anything wider than a medium nib.
This ink seems a little pricey in the abstract, but you are getting 90 ml for $39, making it a lot cheaper than a lot of Sailor inks. (I've been buying some of the Sailor inks named after US states, which sell for $25 for only 20 ml!)
And, if you are a sucker for a beautiful bottle . . . well, you probably ordered one before reading this review. Not only is the bottle beautiful, it is large and stable. It is hard to imagine knocking this over. The rest of the packaging is also exquisite. (See the photos I've attached.) Opening this ink felt like a celebratory event rather than merely an unwrapping. Hardcore environmentalists will hate the packaging, but it sure is luxurious! Thankfully, the ink lives up to the package. (These bottles are supposed to be stackable, but I haven't tried that.) view less
Scribo Verde Mediterraneo is a very nice blue-green or teal, but I don’t remember the sea being that colour; but then, last time I saw it, it wasn’t as polluted s it is now. The in... view morek has red sheen on the outline where it pools in heavy applications, and a little when using my wet Sailor 1911L 21kt H-B nib. I don’t use such colors for daily writing, so I had fun using it in a friend’s Sailor 1911L 21kt Zoom nib. It kept up very well. The closest inks I have in that range are Iroshizuku Ku-Jaku and Syo-Ro. Verde Mediterraneo is slightly yellower, but not by much. view less
