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 Conway Stewart
Conway Stewart was founded in London in 1905 by Frank Jarvis and Thomas Garner and became one of Britain's best-known fountain pen makers, using hard rubber and later colourful celluloid and casein. The original company wound up in 1975; the name was revived in the 1990s and, after a 2014 receivership, is now held by Bespoke British Pens, with pens hand-assembled in Emsworth, England. Current production is high-end, using marbled acrylic, celluloid and sterling silver with 18ct gold nibs, typically priced from about £400 upward.
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.
