Kaweco Fountain Pen Ink Cartridge - Sepia - Pack of 6

Bought this to use in an Ohto Rook pen. Love the color, and the flow is flawless.

I love this color and it performs beautifully in my Kaweco.

Not the sepia color I was looking for. I wish jetpens could post pictures of written ink samples. It would have been helpful. Its ok though, I empty out the ink in the cartridge and refill them with my own bottled ink and use them that way.

I got this ink as a gift. The color is amazing.

Hmm, I wouldn't call this a light purple....you know how blue-black ink is like...black ink with undertones of blue? This is like black-purple ink...purple with undertones of black. Very faint black, but nonetheless it's there.

I think the color of the cartridge box is a pretty accurate measure of the ink itself when it dries. It's a bit richer when you first write with it.

Still, I agree with the "neutral" hue statement. Definitely not overly flashy or shiny. It's a muted purple, calming and perhaps even a bit dry, but that's where its strength lies: in its sensible, straightforward coloring.

I use it for notes and doodles and everything in between, and like how it blends in with my black and blue inks without standing out. Plus, every time someone asks me about the color, I get to tell them a cool name.

"No, this isn't purple ink...it's -aubergine- purple ink!"

Never mind that I'm probably mispronouncing aubergine and that the ink comes from a cheap-looking international cartridge. The point is that it looks flawlessly elegant and dignified on paper.

And the packaging is cute too. Just look at all the pretty flourishes on the side!

This is why I love Kaweco so much.
