Paper & pairing
Greens read as more expressive than blue or black, a common choice for people who want color without leaving the realm of "still looks professional." This ink will behave predictably on most fountain-pen-friendly paper. Cheap, highly absorbent paper (standard copier paper) will dull any ink's saturation and can cause feathering or bleed-through with wetter nibs.
About Abraxas
Abraxas is a Swiss artisan manufacturer whose ink kitchen produces more than 200 different writing and calligraphy inks stirred and mixed by hand from its own recipes. The range includes oak gall inks, saffron and carmine inks, vegetable inks, perfumed inks, secret inks and metallic gold and silver inks, all made from natural, non-toxic raw materials. Its inks have been carried by specialty pen retailers such as Laywine's in Canada.
Storing and using the bottle
Bottled fountain pen ink has an effectively long shelf life when kept capped and out of direct sunlight: most inks remain usable for years. The main risk isn't the ink spoiling, it's a pen sitting inked and unused for weeks: that's what causes clogs, not the ink's age.
