Monteverde Copper Noir ink is a fabulous dark orange copper color, with a hint of a dark or black where the ink is heavily applied. Monteverde Copper Noir ink has more orange in its color than red like the Organics Studio Oscar\u2019s Copper ink<\/a>. The color of this ink is closer to the\u00a0Diamine Ancient Copper ink<\/a>. Monteverde Copper Noir ink is a nice super dark orange ink that shows up well on white paper and is dark enough for everyday use. All Monteverde ink is manufactured in Europe, but packaged in the United States.<\/p>\n

Monteverde Copper Noir Ink Review<\/p><\/div>\n

We found the following traits during our review of Monteverde Copper Noir ink that you may find useful:<\/p>\n

Testing Factors<\/h2>\n

During our review of Monteverde Copper Noir ink we used French made Rhodia dot pad paper with a J. Herbin glass dip spiral pen.<\/p>\n

Bottle Sizes<\/h2>\n

Monteverde bottled ink<\/a> is available in two ink sizes, the regular and very large capacity 90 ml. glass bottle as well as a smaller, almost trial sized, 30 ml. glass bottle. Monteverde Copper Noir ink also comes in a 12 pack of ink cartridges as well.<\/p>\n

Cost<\/h2>\n

Monteverde Copper Noir ink retails for $8.00 per 30 ml. glass bottle and $15.00 for the larger 90 ml. glass bottle. These prices make Monteverde Copper Noir ink an economical ink choice and great value.<\/p>\n

Dry Time<\/h2>\n

During our review of Monteverde Copper Noir ink we found a very quick dry time of approximately 5-6 seconds, which makes this ink very usable in both the home or office. Our dry time was experienced with a glass dip pen on Rhodia paper. Please note that other paper and nib sizes may produce different results.<\/p>\n

Bleed Through<\/h2>\n

There was no bleeding at all during any part of our test using Monteverde Copper Noir ink.<\/p>\n

Feathering<\/h2>\n

During normal use we found absolutely no additional feathering while using Monteverde Copper Noir ink. All lines were clear, crisp and distinct. During the water test, we did notice some slight feathering and line distortion at its wettest parts.<\/p>\n

Water Test<\/h2>\n

We ran a soaking wet cotton swab over an ink sample of Monteverde Copper Noir ink after it had dried for about 3 minutes. The results were some additional line distortion and feathering and some significant color smearing, all of which is not abnormal for a water-based non-waterproof ink.<\/p>\n

Shading<\/h2>\n

Monteverde Copper Noir ink will produce some fantastic shading with the right nib, and handwriting skills. The color of the ink ranges from light orange to deep dark orange\/copper that is almost black. There was even a slight amount of sheening at the wettest points of the review.<\/p>\n

Conclusion About the Monteverde Copper Noir Ink<\/h2>\n

Monteverde ink in general has become a great, economical ink option. They have over 50 ink colors to choose from, are fountain pen friendly, and has great characteristics, colors and price. Monteverde Copper Noir ink is a striking dark shade of orange, with a slight black tint. The price is right,especially at the smaller 30 ml. size, to pick up two or three \u201cNoir\u201d colors. They are all unique dark varieties of a basic color shade. Happy writing from the EU to America!<\/p>\n
