  1. Montblanc Meisterstuck - Origins Coral - (Limited Edition) This ink review was part of a blind test on the Fpgeeks website. Many thanks @JungleJim for the sample. It is a limited edition of Montblanc, celebrating their 100th anniversary and my first Montblanc ink. According to their website, the ink is inspired by both the 1920s Montblanc writing instruments and the coral reefs. It writes sort of a reddish pink colour drying to a rusty orange. It’s subtly different depending which paper you use. Paradoxically, I enjoyed it most on copy paper, and Tomoe River 68 gsm. On copy paper, depending the wetness of pen/ nib width, pressure, you may or may not have woolly lines, ghosting, bleed through all together or not at all. There is some subtle shading, especially on Japanese paper. Chroma: Writing Samples: I think this would be quite fun to use on thick absorbent paper (like Peter Pauper) and on white Japanese Paper. Despite the massacre it looks on Hammermill 20 gr copy paper, it behaved more or less ok between European Ef up to B nibs. Photo: The blue line is Rohrer and Klingner Königsblau (Royal blue) Comparison: Water test: Left side 10 seconds under running water. Artwork: Fox and the grapes: a rebuttal to Aesop's fox and the grapes fable. - Paper is Talens mixed media Paper. Montlblanc Origins Coral Noodler's Lexington Gray/ Black Swan in English Roses Diamine x Niche Pens Alexandrite (non-shimmering) · Pens used: Kaweco (EF/F/M/B, BB), Pilot F3A (Ef, semi-flex) · What I liked: The colour. · What I did not like: The colour with wide nibs, lack of water resistance · What some might not like: Woolly lines on copy paper Price 😛 · Shading: Subtle · Ghosting: Depending nib/ pen/ pressure on cheap paper. · Bleed through: Same as above. · Flow Rate: Restrained. · Lubrication: Lower than average. · Nib Dry-out: Did not notice. · Start-up: Ok · Saturation: Pastel · Shading Potential: Depending paper, wetness of pen, nib size. · Sheen: Did not see. · Spread / Feathering / Woolly Line: Yes on copy paper, ironically with EF nibs (Japanese and Euro) · Nib Creep / “Crud”: Did not notice. · Staining (pen): No. · Clogging: Did not notice. · Cleaning: Easy · Water resistance: Non-existent. · Availability: 50 ml bottles.
