Private Reserve fountain pen inks are made in Europe and packaged in the United States. One of the oldest American fountain pen ink companies, Private Reserve developed the concept of vibrant, saturated inks over 20 years ago. Recently under new ownership, the Private Reserve inks feature the same formulas and colors fountain pen enthusiasts have come to love. Each batch of ink is not hand-mixed but chemists use a precise measuring system for consistent results. Their premium quality inks come in an assortment of colors providing smooth flow, high saturation, and excellent shading.

Customer Reviews
They work great for misc chores ~ 1/2 to 3/4 filled with lead shot (#9) to support small ink bottles that can't hardly stand on their own when used to refill a fountain pen. You might not have the same problem such as I have trying to use one of these small, easily tip over ink bottles, but this method for supporting a small bottle of ink surrounded by small lead shot (#9) works really well. The wide mouth of these Private Reserve ink bottles are great for this. :-)

Good wide mouth jar is multi-purpose. Water for cleaning your pen after a dip. Storing some extra pen flush. If you worry about knocking over smaller ink bottles, pour some or all in this nice sized, sturdy jar.

What a great color! Bold, lively and it was wonderful for fall, especially in the TWSBI coral pen or the Leonardo Mango!

These inks (got 3 pearlescent) have a very fine shimmer that floats to the surface as the ink dries. The “color” therefore comes off as a pastel. The flow and consistency of shimmer are great. There’s just a bit of smearing after drying as with most shimmers. Overall, very nice ink.

I was skeptical about this ink, but I've had it loaded on a pen that tends to dry out on me, even when capped, and it is like a new pen. The Blue color is actually nice, and it has some nice shading. I worried that it would dry slowly, but it behaves like any standard ink, with normal dry times. I am pleased and would certainly buy it again.

Love that this is in a glass bottle and the ink is a lovely dark blue with red sheen especially on Tomoe River paper.

Blue suede is my favorite turquoise (blue more than green leaning), I'm already thinking of getting another bottle just so i dont have to worry about running out if things go south for the company again (God forbid). It's darker than i thought without being too dark, just slightly lighter than KWZ IG Turquoise, shades well & has hints of sheen, a 3-combo weakness for my taste in ink. 60 ml is a lot already so i probably wont get another bottle yet, but i'm so glad i purchased it. Accidently bought Ebony blue the first time, mistaking it for this ink, lol.
Pen Chalet got this order to me in 2 days! They included all kinds of coupon codes for future discounts & kept me informed the entire time my package was in transit, they are one of the most useful places to shop, especially for military, giving 15% off which is the highest consistent discount i've been able to find for fountain pen stores. God bless (Matthew 5:45)!
