Pilot Iroshizuku Fountain Pen Ink - 50 ml Bottle - Fuyu-syogun Winter Shogun (Light Cool Gray)

This shade of Iroshizuku is a beautiful shade of a dark blue with a very subtle, sophisticated touch of green. Works beautifully in my Lamy 2000. Solid and not too flashy, and it is suitable for formal business documents

I am quite pleased with this ink that I have been using in my Namiki Vanishing Point (a wonderful "daily driver" fountain pen, by the way) for nearly a year. It is a color and ink that somehow manages to be subtle, delicate and vibrant at the same time. Admittedly more expensive than any other ink I have bought or used, I have not regretted the purchase for a moment. I shall almost certainly be ordering more from jetpens.com when I run low.

I'm not too familiar with this brand of ink but I am very much impressed with this ink color. It's more of a lighter grey once it's all dried, with bluish tones but it's definitely a very nice shade! I love it.

One of the few inks in this brand that I give 4 stars instead of 5. The ink goes on beautifully, but as it dries, the color becomes a little flat in shade. The other colors in this brand have had intense colors, but this is one of the few that I prefer from a relatively fine nib [OM] as opposed to my larger B or OBB nibs. Gorgeous while wet, but again, a tad pastel as it dries. Just dull enough that it may be work appropriate in some offices.

The behavior matches that of other shades in this brand. Nice flow, behaves well on a variety of papers. I'm using this in expensive pens and no staining or nib creep so far.

I'll buy more, I think, but not as quickly as the "purer" colors in the rest of the line.

My first order from JetPens & my first bottle of Pilot Iroshizuku ink. The ink color is far more beautiful than samples I've seen, richer than the box label shown and darker than the ink seen in pictures, a true Deep Turquoise with a touch of green. The name Peacock is fitting as this color is very close to the deep bluish-green seen in male peacock feathers. Bottle itself is a work of art in glass, very heavy and well mastered glasswork. Order arrived 2 days after shipping, clear across the continent, fast shipping. Thanks, JetPens, I will be back!
