Review Title: The perfect brown ink that shimmers gold

This ink is really a perfect brown ink: warm but dark brown, not too light. Because of the shimmering material, I use this ink in a high flow, broad nib, relatively inexpensive, Pelikan M205 Smokey Quartz demonstrator pen. It’s the perfect combination for me. I would not recommend use in an expensive demonstrator because I think the shimmer material coats the barrel over time (at least it did my Pelikan). Make sure to flip the pen a few times before writing with it to get the shimmer material in suspension. Frankly, I sometimes let the shimmer settle and use the ink as a perfectly behaved sepia ink.
