Paper & pairing
Warm tones (oranges, yellows, ambers) show strong contrast between light and dark areas of each stroke, which is part of why they're popular with broader nibs. 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 Campo Marzio
Campo Marzio traces its origins to a 1933 artisan workshop in the Campo Marzio district of Rome that decorated and personalized writing instruments. After the Second World War the workshop's reputation grew in Rome, and the name later developed into an international brand selling colorful, contemporary pens, leather goods, and accessories.
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.
