Platinum - Fountain Pen Ink - Classic - #47 Citrus Black
Platinum’s Classic Inks range is the definition of under-the-radar. Water resistant and very well behaved, these are some really beautiful and appropriately “classic” colours from one of the Big Three Japanese penmakers.
Developed in collaboration with a Japanese fountain pen enthusiast known only as “Gary” these inks are modern Iron Gall inks. For those unfamiliar, Iron Gall inks have been made for centuries and are highly water resistant as the ferrous sulphate content of the ink causes it to bond permanently to the paper.
Platinum Classic Citrus Black is an odd one, certainly a yellow but almost a green at the same time... I won't spoil how this one develops, you'll have to see for yourself.
Each Platinum Classic ink comes in a 60ml glass bottle.
