Diamine 80ml Sherwood Green fountain pen ink bottle

Work writing

Reading some of the reviews it appears that a number of these have arrived broken. Mine did not. It is the first time I have used green ink in a long time and this ink is really nice. It is dark, which I like and looks good on the page, it flows nicely out of the nib and dries fairly quickly which is a bonus. Overall very happy. Just need a couple more pens to use it all now.

For me this is a nostalgic return to what was in my youth a rebellion against the blue ink prescribed in school. New to me is Diamine ink, and I now use it in blue and black as well.

love this for my everyday ink. it creates a lovely contrast and has a lovely depth to the colour. an ink that isn't blue/black on white/cream paper gives a fantastic contrast that is very pleasing to read and just so easy on the eye. thank you for this. also was well packaged. ink is a 'fancy' product for those who love it, so treating it so lovingly certainly was appreciated.

This green is such a particular, delightful hue. It's striking, in an elegant way. I can use it both for highlights and as a main writing colour to add a touch of subtle exclusivity.

Just gorgeous! Never disappointed! Have purchased different colours, flows beautifully! 💚💚💚

Nice colour green and flows well from my nib

I've always favoured green for writing, so I have quite a few green inks by most manufacturers in my collection. This one has surprised me by being even better than I expected, and very useable. It's always hard to describe hues without seeing them, and comparisons are subjective, but I'd say it's a mid dark with just the right amount of yellow, a little lighter than Herbin Lierre Sauvage (another of my mainstays) and with a little more shading and character. Diamine make such a great range of colours, and some absolute winners when it comes to quality. This is one of them.
