Highly recommend purchasing a bottle
I love this ink. It has high shading, is well behaved, and is a very pleasant bluish purple.

Fascinating blue-pink-gray ink
Grey Seas shifts and shades from subtle muted blue to Prussian blue with hints of pink. A joy to work with on Rhodia and Bienfang Marker Pads and other pads made for pen and ink.

Not what I was expecting
This ink was more blue than I expected. I was looking for a nice blue-gray color. It is still a nice color, just not what I'm looking for.

Wonderful soft blue-black ink
I would call this ink blue or blue-black, but not grey. Recently, I have come to greatly enjoy using a "soft" color like this one. The ink is perfectly readable and even dark at ti...view moremes, but it does not have the "sharpness" of a classic blue ink on white. Rather it is like a dark rain cloud. A huge amount of character is in this ink. I find it great for sketching,, great for writing letters, and great for making grocery lists. BTW, I discovered this ink on the Mountain of Ink website. Kelli is the best ink reviewer I have ever rad because she focuses on the usability and aesthetics of various inks and has fantastic writing samples. I have made a number of buying decisions after reading her reviews and never been disappointed. This is a typical Robert Oster well-behaved ink. view less
